"When I told my mother I wanted to be a preacher, it did not turn out well. We would fight with her and she used to beat me a lot. She was always angry because of what people used to say. I remember we had a shop and she would leave me to work but I would end up closing it and go out to preach," he said.According to the young man of God, he started his ministry at a tender age of five, something that left most people shocked.
"I started preaching when I was five-years old. I began talking at seven months and struggled to walk for two years. People started calling me pastor when I was little and that inspired me a lot," said Githu.The boy said he tried to take away his life when his parents could not allow him to pursue his passion.
"I told myself, you lady if you do not want me to preach, it is better I commit suicide but as I was trying to tie the rope I remembered I needed to say goodbye to my brother. My brother could not let me die and he immediately ran to inform my mum," he added.The boy said he has a vision to be more spiritual and also venture into the world of music.
"I want to be just at the spiritual line. Spiritual line of the Holy Spirit. I want to be a gospel musician who is following the line of the Lord," he added.Do you have a groundbreaking story you would like us to publish?
