Emmanuel Ifechukwude Okose, popularly known as Soul E Baba, a former secular has revealed the huge financial loss he experienced while evading the call of God on his life.

He made songs like “Soul E Baba Dey Here”, “Esoji Ejasi” and collaborated with Tuface on a song titled, “No Be Small Thing o” before going into full-time ministry.

According to Soul E Baba, he lost about 500 million naira while running away from God's will for him.

“I lost N500 million in court cases and a few other things I was facing at the time I refused to listen to God’s call. My music career went down so bad that I couldn’t understand what was going on.

“My record label that used to love me deeply suddenly turned their backs on me. I started making wrong investments, the list is endless.

“All these happened just because I refused to answer the call of God. I remember I was coming from an event in Sheraton Hotel here in Abuja and I had a fatal accident.

“My Jeep somersaulted 4 times. It was the craziest experience I have ever had. When I finally came out with my driver unhurt, a young boy at the scene of the accident said to me you better listen and stop being stubborn to your Creator. That was the last time I was stubborn to God.”

He is now Apostle Emmanuel Okose, a General Overseer, New Evidence Christian Church of God aka The Evidence Place.
