I'm still a farm boy at heart. If I hadn't suffered from asthma as a child, I would be a farmer today.
My parents were early converts to Christianity in my part of Nigeria. They were not just converts; my father was an evangelist, a religious teacher. He and my mother traveled for thirty-five years to different parts of Igboland, spreading the gospel.
