The heart is the channel through which God communicates his heart. You can neither receive of his wisdom and instructions nor bear fruit if it is not wired to his heart's frequency.

Claim: The CEO of Crowwe application and one-time presidential aspirant, Adamu Garba, has claimed that he asked Google to take down his social media platform from Google Playstore because he needed to update the App.
But Verification has shown that Google only removes applications that are perceived to have violated its policy, and that Applications must not necessarily be removed for Updates. So the claim is false
Full story
Following the announcement of the ban on Twitter by the Nigerian Government, the Chief Executive Officer, IPI Group, Adamu Garba, recently presented the Crowwe app as an alternative to the microblogging website.
Meanwhile, a publication by Peoples Gazette on Monday, June 14, 2021, stated that Google had deleted Crowwe App days after the federal government suspended Twitter.
The publication noted that the app has since received terrible reviews which could be responsible for its disappearance on the play store app.
