1.Question: Why did you decide to undertake this walk of plus-minus 1 750 kilometers?
Answer: Not only has this walk tested my faith but it also helped me to live my faith. Also, all the proceeds managed to come in from this walk will go towards the building of a library for disadvantaged learners in our area that we have identified and a work centre. Some of the materials for the buildings have been secured.
2.Question: What is the most common question you get asked?
Answer: The most common question I get asked; ‘is it not dangerous walking back alone?’ My answer is always no, compared to the life I lived away from God nothing is more dangerous. I rather do this and risk my life than to be apart from God and not give him praise.
3.Question: What has motived you to do this walk of faith?
Answer: This walk is motivated by my ‘hero to zero’ past. My friends and I were once very successful in our respective areas of work until we joined bad friends and began getting involved in bad hobbies. I lost everything I had and began fighting for a cardboard box to sleep in on the streets each evening, not knowing when my next meal would be. This taught me faith; it taught us faith and that is how this walk of faith was born.
4.Question: How can people who are willing to assist you do so?
Answer: I would appreciate if they contact Mr Walaza on 066 515 0159 or 011 410 6366 to make a contribution to this cause.
