Nigeria classical gospel singer and songwriter, M.P also known as Marypascal Oparamanuike releases a powerful melodious song titled “Jesus Igwe”.
In her own words, “The song explains her encounter with God. It all started when she thought she was going to die but Jesus appeared in front of her with so much light and all she could see was His hand and said hold my hand and I will never leave you and she sang ‘Jesus Igwe” all through the time she was operated at the theatre. The doctors and nurses could not hear what she was singing because it was in a different language which made her remember her promise to God”…
