She said:

"Back in my NYSC days, I was a very active worker in RCCG, serving faithfully. I remember the day of our POP Thanksgiving vividly. The pastor told us to ask God what we wanted Him to do in our lives. I prayed with all my heart and asked God to open a door for me to get a job a month or two after NYSC."

She added:

"A few weeks later, I got back to Abuja, and one of my cousins called me asking if I could send her a recharge card. I had just finished NYSC and didn’t have much, so I told her I could only send a 100 naira recharge card, and that’s exactly what I did. She then called me and asked if I could work in a bank as a marketer, saying she could help connect me to someone. I agreed."

Some minutes later, the bank invited her to an interview, and when she arrived before the interview time, she stated she had not prepared a CV yet. A CV template was then edited for her to print out and submit at the time of the interview, which she did.

"A few minutes later, I got a text from a strange number asking me to come for an interview the next day at a plaza in CBD Abuja. I was scared at first, thinking it might be one of those 419 scams. I called the number to confirm, and the person asked me to send my CV. I told him I didn’t have one yet, and he said I should come early so he could arrange one for me before the interview started," she wrote.

After the interview, she was contacted that same night, on Saturday, to resume work on Monday for a marketing role in the bank. She gave God the glory for such a miracle.
