Nigerian Gospel singer, Buchi Atuonwu, has recounted how he almost lost his life through a firing squad.

Buchi who spoke in an interview on Channels Televisions Morning Brief programme said they were lined up for execution with the firing squad kneeling before them, but God came through for him.

Buchi said he cried to God for help with a promise to serve him if he was saved, and he had devoted his life to God since after the incident.

He said, At a point in my life, we were lined up for execution. It is true that the people that were to execute us, were kneeling before us, ready to fire.

I called out to a God that I didnt know that if He saves me, I will serve him. He saved me from that firing squad and I devoted my life to serving him. (New Telegraph)
