Nigerian actress and Lagos state deputy governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Funke Akindele has called on the Celestial Church of Christ (CCC) to pray for her.
The 45 year old further revealed that she was born and raised in the church.
In a video posted on Sunday, she stated that she would be associated with the Church publicly, henceforth.
Akindele appeared in the church’s white garment called sutana, as she said, “I was born and raised in Celestial. My situation was like that of a lost sheep that God calls back home.”
The politician said she is well known at CCC parishes at Agidingbi/Mile 12, Ogudu/Alapere, and Olusosu/Ojota areas of Lagos State. She stated,
“Whenever I had challenges in my life, I usually ran back to Celestial Church but secretly. And I would see that I got breakthroughs, but right now I said enough is enough. I’ve stop hiding. I have to be identified with the church publicly.”
She continued,
“And I want to beg you, be praying for Funke Akindele. Every day you’re praying, remember Funke Akindele and everything that belongs to Funke Akindele. That whatever Funke Akindele does should turn to success, and wherever Funke Akindele steps on should be gotten for her.”
