According to the singer, there had been no graduate in her family because there was no money to take anyone to school.
“Through my ministry, I was able to raise money to look after my younger ones. No one has been able to go to secondary school but he went to university, now he is a graduate working somewhere and the other is now a lecturer at the Pentecost University,” she told Joy News’ MzGee in an interview.
Cindy Thompson explained that she felt proud seeing a graduate in her house adding that “that alone pushes me to love God all the more because there’s more he can do.”
The singer said she did not imagine for a second while growing up, that music would bring her this far.
“I never taught that I could be a musician, I loved to sing from my childhood so I never knew music would take me this far, never. I was eager to further my education to be somebody so I can take care of my younger ones,” Cindy Thompson added.
She said that she was focused on becoming a secretary, get a job and cater to her other siblings.
“I educated myself, others helped me by paying my fees and the ones my parents can, they would do. The ones they cannot, I have to seek help, so for me being here, in fact, it is the grace of God,” she added.
