am told by medical Doctors they might stay in india for up to three months.
About N900,000 came in from outside apart from the N5m that I gave.“So bring
another 10,000 U.S. dollars and four bail of N500 (N1 million) to make it N10
million. I was told someone from Abuja here donated 4,300 Rupees to that,” Bro.
Iginla said.“So by this week, they are travelling to India and when they come
back, we will update you again to see what has been done.“They have gotten the
Visa and her brother’s and Doctor Eghosa’s who will accompany her there.The

immediately at d Church.
Bro
Joshua Iginla of Champions Royal Assembly, again, stressed that he did not know
Jamila from anywhere but was only showing love to her.He also emphasised that
his gesture was not to convert Jamila from Islam to Christianity.
His
words:
“I want to tell you that I don’t know our sister and I need to stress that the money I am giving her is not a bait to turn Jemila from Islam to Christian.“That’s why we did not give her Bible and we are not stopping her from going back to Muslim when she comes back but we are saying women should be respected and protected.“It is not about converting her but about who is my neighbour. My neighbour is the one who needs my help and who I can render help.“This is just the little we can do to preach love to all human race whether Christian, Muslim, Hindu or any religion or tribe.“It is still a problem in Nigeria to help people outside of your religion or tribe; it is a tradition to help only people from your tribe or religion,” he said.Doctor Eghosa, explained that all arrangements had been concluded for Jamila and the team to leave for New Delhi, India.“Through Papa, we have made arrangement with Fortis Hospital in New Delhi and will be leaving this week by the grace of God”“She will have cosmetic approach for the neck and also surgery for the eyes and the cost will be about N10 million or more,” Dr. Eghosa said.According to him, the team of Doctors to carry out thereconstructionsurgeryhadbeencontactedandweresettocarry out the surgery.Bro. Iginla is synonymous with assisting people from all walks of life especially, widows, orphans and less-privileged.
