Daniel said this at 18th annual anniversary Thanksgiving Service held at Abraham’s Tabernacle Baptist International Worship Centre in Sagamu, Ogun State.
According to Daniel, it was the grace of God that took him out of the challenges.
He alleged that some powerful stressing forces were behind his travails for what is best known to them
He said “I was arrested by the EFCC, spent two weeks in custody and thereafter arraigned. I appeared 121 times in court and I didn’t miss any of the court days. I didn’t steal, nor snatch wife of anybody, or kill any person child.
‘For eleven years I was under trial, there were all manners of conspiracy. But on 12th of April last year, God did his wonders.
“When I was arrested by EFCC and later secured bail, the first set of people to visit me was the Afeniere group, who attested to my integrity.”
” So if you see me organizing thanksgiving, it is for God.
” I am one of the most grateful to God, that’s the essence of thanksgiving. I escaped jail with the grace of God.”
