Woman Becomes Stranded After Borrowing N54,000, to Pay for Miracle Prayers
Every day is full of regrets for Evarline Okello who lives in a shack in the sprawling slums of Kibera, Nairobi.

That was not how she envisioned her life would turn out, but it is where she is now and the much she can do is shed tears.
Evarline took loan of N54k
In an interview with BBC, the mother of four disclosed that her woes may have started way back, but they were compounded by her quest to better her life.
According to her, she was struggling to feed her children when she heard that a pastor would pray for her to receive a financial breakthrough.
But there was a catch: Evarline had to part with N54,000 in what was referred to as a “seed offering.”
She discloses that whoever informed her about the clergyman waxed lyrical about how powerful he is, and that she would repay the money in days.
Loan has ballooned to N137k
Given that there was hope for better things ahead, she borrowed the money from a friend who took a loan on her behalf.
It dawned on her that she had been conned when there was no positive financial change in her life, and things even got worse.
The loan her friend took on her behalf has since ballooned out of control due to unpaid interest and currently stands at N137,000.
