"I would like to beg God and humans. Sometimes I post things, and people urge me to delete them, only for me to insult them. I felt no one was sensible enough to advise me. I feel sad in my soul. I am very happy I now know where I fell short, and I plead with God and people to help me. In my heart, mind, and soul, I will love to go to the ghetto to preach. If I get renewed strength, knowledge, and motivation today, I would use my strength to move from ghetto to ghetto to preach.
"My mind and soul are telling me I should admit that I erred and seek forgiveness. If I spoke and did something wrong that someone who adored me has rejected, such a person should forgive me. Such a person should pray for me, and if they have advice, they should give it to me. I am ready to let people know that I am an obedient person now."

Reactions to Evangelist Suro confessing to arrogance

Social media users who took to the comment section of the video shared varied opinions on the comments made by Evangelist Suro Nyame.

@DeepGrey-kj2ke stated:

"He loves God, he understands his calling, but lacks the principles of how the world revolves. Problems have bubbled and distorted his calling because he lacks the financial capacity to explore his calling. This is where God has to put him, or else he will conform to the principles of the world and go with what the ruler of the world gives. May God strengthen you, Suro Nyame."

@bentilbismark237 commented:

"Suro Nyame, God is at your side, you will rise up again and even mightier."

@Barascojunior added:

"I never knew this guy was this clear-minded. Woow, may God rebuild you again in Jesus Christ's name."
