This episode was recorded earlier in the week but publishing has been a too difficult as we've been in too much of a shock from hearing about the unrest affecting the country of the majority of our listener-base.
No search-engine-keyword thing this time. Just urging everyone tuning in from outside of Nigeria to educate yourself about the situation and lend a supportive hand if you can.
Prayers up our Naija family. Please continue to stay safe and away from trouble.
Big Love. ❤️💙
