<p>During an interview with BBC, Taribo West was known for his strange hairstyle during his playing days and shared how he had a<strong> divine encounter with God</strong></p>
<p>He disclosed that he heard God’s voice audibly instructing him to render an apology to a woman she offended.</p>
<p>According to Taribo West, after speaking to the woman he received a lot of prophesy from her which changed his life.</p>
<p><em>“Why would I switch from being a footballer to becoming a pastor? I saw God one-on-one. That’s where my transition started; From the field to the pulpit.</em></p>
<p><em>“We were celebrating. In the middle of that, a woman stumbled into me and said: ‘Sir, please may I know your name?’ I said: ‘I am Mr No name’.</em></p>
<p><em>She said: ‘May I know where you live?’ I said: ‘I live nowhere.’ She left with annoyance.</em></p>
<p><em>“In the twinkle of an eye, I just heard an audible voice. And it came like a slap. It said: ‘Switch, turn.’ I turned. It said: ‘Look at the woman. Look for her now and call that woman and apologize to her. I said that to you.’ That can only be a voice from God.</em></p>
<p><em>“So I switched, like a Robocop, I start searching for the woman, and when this sister came all the way from America, she told me a lot of prophecies. And she told me in the next one or two years; I would open a church. All the prophecies she gave me came to pass.”</em></p>
