“I was employed as a driver, then I took my madam car to go and give testimony in the church that I have bought a car, that this is what God has done for me.
“The first day I was employed, I stole the car and took it to my pastor and told him that this is what God has done for me.
“I acted that way because I wanted to use the car for Uber.
“This is the first time, I have never done it before.
“The auntie (my madam) wanted to travel, so, I wanted to use it for four days to look for what my family will eat,” Daniel said.
