MTN Project fame winner and popular singer, Chidinma has revealed shocking details of how she was born blind and mysteriously stayed blind for 15 consecutive days right after she was born.

It should be recalled that the singer recently dedicated a new song, 'Martha' to her mother and even featured her in the track.

Chidinma recently took to her Instagram page and revealed details of how she was born blind:
"I was conceived and certified totally blind at birth. For fifteen nights this woman held me in her hands and wept uncontrollably, with my father calling on God to bless the newly born, Chidinma with sight. On the sixteenth day I opened my eyes and they have been opened ever since."

She also revealed how her parents' prayers helped her overcome her challenges as an infant.

"I was born a very fragile baby with some health conditions. Her prayers took it all away. Life is such a wonderful and colourful piece of art and it must feel like hell not to envision God’s creation,” she said.

Remarkable. I'm just thinking 'would I have been able to sustain a crush on a blind Chidinma?'

Then again, living blind might have altered the course of her life and she might never have become such a star. And, yet again, we have Cobhams Asuquo.

I'm glad at the outcome of events.

There are a number of things to take away from Chidinma's experience and one of such is that the power of prayers can never be underestimated.
