Are you a Christian? Do you sometimes fast because of severe hunger and lack of food? Well, Ghanaian gospel diva Patience Nyarko has wildly asserted that many Christians resort to fasting when they have no food at home.
In an interview with Rev Nyansa Boakwa on Happy 98.9 FM’s NsemPii, she said,
I’ve been a victim, so I know what I’m saying. When you see people on a park praying aggressively who claim to be undergoing a fasting and prayer session don’t always believe them; some are actually very hungry
Patience Nyarko also confessed to how she once fasted for two continuous weeks on different occasions because she was out of funds and food hence the only thing she could do was to fast.
She also mentioned that before she became who she is today, she faced some tough times and even had to lodge in a church for shelter because she could not afford food and accommodation.
Staying in a church and not being able to afford food I just had to pretend to be undergoing a fast just so I don’t feel the impact of the hungry
Many Christians shave rubbished her claims with the view that no true believer will adopt fasting as a mans of escaping hunger.
