Kevin Wangi: “I got caught up in a lot of gang activities and a lot of drugs, it just became the norm for a lot of young people in the area.”  Yet from a life of drug drug dealing and street violence, Kevin is now a church leader as well as a business man. On a faithful afternoon, Kevin described the events that changed his world and his life from an innocent boy to a nationwide drug dealer.

“At the age of 11, I remember seeing one guy on my way home. At that age I didn’t know he was a drug dealer but I knew he was doing something fishy, something that wasn’t right. He looked so clean, had the best clothes and a nice car.  I got caught up in a lot of gang activities and a lot of drugs, it just became the norm for a lot of young people in the area.”

How This Amazing Transformation Happened

“At the age of 15 I was getting more serious about drugs and getting jobs outside London. During this time my mum was getting more and more worried, for two weeks straight she wouldn’t see me at home.”  As Kevin progressed in his life and career, he quickly began to realise that a life of drug dealing was also generating a world of strong enemies.

“I wanted to start making money peacefully and more people kept asking me to buy them stuff. So I started hanging around a few friends who were known for stabbing people and I felt better knowing I could get my money peacefully and no one will harass me.”

As Kevin’s reputation grew stronger among his friends, so did his enemies. Unfortunately it took the death of a young teenager to realise that enough was enough and that something had to change.  The transformation of Kevin’s life started to come into effect when he described a situation he was in that could have ended tragically. He feels it was the divine intervention of God.   Read the full story…. christiantoday.com
