THE UNDYING LIGHT: THE SAMUEL AJAYI REVELATION “No matter how often honest people will stand, they always strengthen again; but disaster destroys the wicked.” Proverbs 24:16 There are men whose stories are not written in ink, but in fire and survival men who are chosen not because the road was easy, but because they were strong enough to walk through it and still remain pure. Samuel Ajayi is one of such rare souls a man whose trials have become prophecies, whose silence has become thunder, and whose scars tell a story of divine preservation. For years, he has been tested by storms meant to bury him, yet like gold refined through the fiercest flame, he emerges brighter each time. The wicked celebrate too soon, forgetting that God never leaves His own in the ashes. When grace carries a man, even the pit becomes a platform. Samuel life is a mirror of divine irony the more he is pressed, the more his light expands. The more they speak against him, the louder Heaven speaks for him. Because ...

Distinguished elders, representatives, and men and women of conscience, the time for silence has passed. I have written before — a humble attempt in June — and for daring to speak, I was vilified by those who feed on the wages of loyalty rather than the fruit of truth. My words were twisted, stripped of context, and clothed in malice to please their masters. Yet I am undeterred. I hold no bitterness...
