He added that the girl loved him dearly, but her parents were against the marriage since Francis was poor.

“When I was in Ghana, I did not have any money until I met my destiny helpers. They helped me relocate to the US. I remember I lost my girlfriend because of poverty. She loved me, but her parents refused to allow me to marry her because I only had a bicycle which I had been using for five years."
"My destiny helpers supported me to start a business in Ghana and I even built a house before relocating to the US."

Francis is now studying abroad on a scholarship at the Christ For The Nations Institute in Texas. He is the only Ghanaian on a scholarship in the school.
