He also revealed that his wife Lucy, has stood beside him in love and in all, smiles.
In his words, he said:
“She’s so patient, gentle, so kind, so forgiving, so nice. She’s the best wife in the world. She’s the quality of being a true wife and mother. She’s very caring, thoughtful and gentle. If she hadn’t been forgiving me, this marriage would have been ruined long ago.”
He added, “Apart from being a good mother, she’s also a prayer warrior. She stood by me and prayed for me while in office so that I will not make any mistakes but succeed.
She’s always praying for me and praying for my children. One of the things we prayed for is that God has answered us with 50 years of marriage.
