Chidinma in the same post also spoke about her childhood, claiming she was born blind but prayers from her parents restored her sight
“I was born blind actually, I didn’t open my eyes at all and that became a challenge, my parents tried all that they could to get me to see,” She said.
According to Chidinma, her parents eventually had to turn to God for her healing, which was a miracle.
The gospel singer said after gaining her sight, her mum reached an agreement with God to dedicate her to him.
