He said:

"I had a dream where I got a bird that could turn its head in every direction without till the end. Before his birth, I had planted a plantain tree, which produced food on two different sides. I saw it when he was born, so I made him a pastor during his childhood."
"I took him when he was only two weeks old. He was always sitting in a walker and walking beside me every time. I used to take him to my workplace."

The late religious leader stated that he appointed his son as the CEO of the Kantanka Group of Companies because he deserved it.
