We were privileged to hear from 6 ex-inmates most of who were wrongly accused. The one that touched me most is that of Mr. Godwin Nwaokolo. Read his testimony below:

| With My leader |
On August 29, 2017, The FT Prison Ministry got approval from the Prison headquarters and started an adapted model of "Covenant Hour of Prayer" tagged: Prison Liberation Prayer Altar across Lagos Prisons. Our team goes once a week to join and motivate inmates. The vision of the ministry is to revive a burning love for God in the hearts of Prison inmates as they engage in the Prison Liberation Prayer Altar(Acts. 16:25).
