How did you come to bear the name “THE EAGLE” ?

I believe that one of the four living creatures in the throne room in heaven, one of them is called Eagle. Growing up people just started calling me the eagle, based on the grace of God upon my life, and then I adopted it at a point when I saw the hand of the lord upon me. So the Bible says in John 3: we are like the wind. Every child of God should be an eagle.

HOW DO YOU GET YOUR SONGS?

We don’t go to God for songs, we only desire a relationship. Songs are by- products of relationships. Fragrance of fire was in a place of worship and the lord said to me, your praise and worship is fragrance but when it gets to me it becomes fire. I was literally in a place of worship and I saw my worship moving literally from fragrance to fire. That’s how I got my song title ‘fragrance to fire’, and then the lord showed me from scripture. The rest they say is history.

ASHA IS A PHRASE YOU ALWAYS USE WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

This may be the first time I am going to be talking about that word “ASHA”, a lot of person would have been thinking why I always say that word. The word ASHA is from Deuteronomy 33:28. That was Isaac blessing his son and he said of Asha your feet shall be deep in oil. So when I say Asha, I am actually feeling the anointing.

SO WHAT MORE SHOULD WE BE LOOKING FORWARD FROM YOU?

Well, the Holy Spirit has a lot of things in store for me. I can say this is the reason of revival and God is apportioning things for his children. I always tell people, just put yourself in the place of worship; and you can’t put me in a box.

God is going to use sounds he has put in my spirit to bless the world. I see an outpouring in the horizon. Nigeria is going to play a very vital role in revival. 2020 is a year of reset but we will never give up. There is going to be a flood of the spirit very soon, that’s why I can’t tell you what to expect; we just wait for the spirit of the lord.

This is the time to align with God. God is recruiting his army in this time. Repentance, Revival, Awakening, then Outpouring. It’s all going to be about the gospel of the kingdom.

WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR UPCOMING ARTISTES?

I will tell you what I do, just stay. I mean stay in the presence of the lord. I will tell you as an upcoming artiste, don’t go to God for a sound but desire a relationship and he will give you a well. I can tell you the sounds that you have heard from me are things that came out of fellowship. I do tell people I don’t write songs but they don’t believe. I am an industrial chemist by training without any knowledge in arts and literature. But the sounds the lord bring to me are things I either see or he inspires me to write.

Secondly, remember destiny is not a destination it’s an adventure. Place your self as the lord leads you. Don’t be under pressure to prove anything to any body. Work hard, because it takes time to build.
