Without her, he doesn’t know what would have happened to him.Today, as the epic sequel, Lisabi: A Legend is Born is released on Netflix, Lateef is here to share his testimony.Watch the 30 minutes interview version this evening at 5pm on YouTube and the full 1-hour version on withChude.com.Let me know your thoughts below after watching ❤.
