Buchi Atuonwu, a Nigerian gospel artist, has spoken up about a terrible incident that changed his life. In an interview with Channels Television, the poetic evangelist said that he was almost killed by a firing squad and had to "call to a God he did know." Atuonwu said that he prayed to God at that time, promising to serve him, and that God granted his desire. Since then, he has dedicated his life to serving God.
It is true that the people who were to execute us were already kneeling before us, ready to fire. True, I called out to a God I didn't know. "If you save me, I will serve you." Let me just say that Jesus spared me from the firing squad, and I have dedicated my life to serving him," he stated in part.
