God took control. He reversed my ugly situations and made me beautiful
again. To God I give adoration and honour. It is only God that I will
serve because He has made me whole again. I thank all well-meaning
Nigerians and the ever supportive Nigerian media for their prayers and
good wishes via my Facebook wall. It shall be well with you all.’
Sir Shina Peters also expressed his joy that he personally returned to Nigeria with Sammie alive. ‘I
am overwhelmed with joy that I returned to Nigeria with my wife, full
of life. It is a great feeling, my brother, Sammie has been a great
supporter, an amiable, loving wife and mother of my children. She does
not deserve such a dark moment in her life. I must confess to you that
since we resigned our faith to God, He took control and the result is a
hale and hearty Sammie.’
