“Before we started our praise and worship with songs like ‘Hold somebody’ and ‘We are together again’ the lady gave me a hug...and I was like, oh it feels good and she said 'Oware keep on keeping on', so I was like, this was deep, and I will use it to write a song.”

When quizzed on what he thought necessitated the words of the said lady, OJ said was certain that his enthusiasm and service to the church.
