Christina Shusho opened up about her decision to leave her husband, stating it was driven by a divine assignment revealed to her in a dream.
"For me, let me speak from the heart. I ask those following me to believe that this is who I am. I have never been fake, and I don't lie. The truth is, it's just an assignment.
