Popular gospel singer, Nathaniel Bassey, has said that he will mark his 44th birthday anniversary on Friday, August 29, by hosting a worship session with inmates at the Kirikiri Medium Security Prison in Lagos.

Bassey, also a Pastor, in a post on his Instagram page on Wednesday, revealed that the event will feature a one-day edition of the popular ‘Halleluyah Challenge’, which was started in 2017.

“Tomorrow for my birthday, I praise and celebrate with my brethren in prison,” Nathaniel Bassey wrote.
