Ojuola Asuquo, Cobhams Asuquo’s Wife opened up in a youtube interview about how her son’s blindness has made her closer to God.

Speaking in a video interview, she narrated how she discovered her son was blind after four months. According to her, she went to the hospital for check-ups and was told her son “is not following”. This made her scared and confused as her doctor outside the country told her something different.

It also led to a series of tests both in and outside the country where it was confirmed that he, (her son) can not see. She admits that she found the situation quite unbelievable because “it feels like you are not getting answers”. This is especially as the doctors could not place what exactly is wrong since the physiology of her son is perfect.

At the point where she was not getting any answers, she totally lost it. She was in fear and started questioning if she did not pray enough or was negligent.

Admittedly, the experience made her question her spiritual strength.

Despite it all, there is hope. She believes she is now going through a journey and she is making progress which is why she can share this story in the open.
