My dad wept like a baby the first time he attended church in America after his incarceration in Nigeria- Says girl who rescued her dad from his siblings
US-based Nigerian lady, Ifunanya Mokwuah, has disclosed that her father broke down in tears and wept like a baby when he attended church in America again after his incarceration in Nigeria by his siblings.
It would be recalled that Nigerian-American Peter Mokwuah was locked up in his own house for many months by his siblings after he left America to spend his retirement in his village in Enugwu-Ukwu, Anambra State.
He had suffered a stroke, but despite the $5000 (about N7.5m) pension and social security benefit he was paid monthly, he was not given any medical treatment and was left on a dirty mattress lying on the floor in his house.
His first daughter, Ifunanya, said all efforts by her and other family members to link up with Peter were frustrated by his siblings in the village.
Ifunanya later asked for permission from her work in the US and travelled to their village, where she was able to rescue her father and fly her back to the United States of America.
In the 16th instalment of her gripping testimony, Ifunanya said her father was removed from the nursing home where he was taken to after leaving the hospital and brought to their family house in the US.
She recalled that when she took her father for the first time after his ordeal, he broke down in tears that he got a second chance to experience the worship of God once again.
She also recalled that she flew to Nigeria about five times to attend to the criminal prosecution of her father’s siblings.
