"I'm Done With Pastor Chris"-Anita Oyakhilome As She
Insists There Is No Going Back On Divorce
It appears all hopes that televangelist Chris Oyakhilome and
his wife, Anita, would resolve their matrimonial issues is lost
as Mrs Oyakhilome through lawyers Attwaters Jameson Hill
Solicitors has said her relationship with Pastor Chris had
terribly degenerated and that there is no room for any
reconciliation or out-of-court settlement.
After news broke that she had filed for divorce, journalists
contacted Mrs Oyakhilome's lawyers to enquire whether any
out-of-court settlement option was being explored.
In their response Tuesday, her attorneys said there was no
chance the estranged couple would ever live as husband
and wife again.
“It is with great sadness that our client, Pastor Anita
Oyakhilome, has come to the conclusion that her marriage
to Pastor Christian Oyakhilome has irretrievably broken
down and regrettably there is no hope of any reconciliation,”
said Stephen Goddard, Business Development Manager of
Attwaters Jameson Hill Solicitors.
From early this year, there had been speculation that the
marriage between Mr Oyakhilome, the founder of Believers
Love World (aka Christ Embassy), and his wife, who is also
Vice-president of the ministry, was collapsing.
Some church members even set up a Facebook page,
“Where is Rev Anita Oyakhilome”, in May dedicated to
addressing the issue.
The church initially denied reports that the couple were
estranged and possibly divorcing.
But TheCable reported on August 29 that Mrs. Oyakhilome
had filed for divorce since April 9, accusing Pastor Chris, as
he is fondly called by his followers, of “adultery” and
“unreasonable behaviour”.
Pastor Chris has denied the allegations. He however warned
church members against analysing his problem with his wife
adding that the church is not a political party.
He said his wife is a bitter and angry woman who is being
influenced by bad friends who are out to seek his downfall.
The pastor added that most pastors’ wives usually think they
are equal to their husbands after they get married.
He said his wife wanted to overpower the authorities of the
elders she met when she joined the Christian ministry.
As the divorce battle rages, Mrs. Oyakhilome’s profile has
been pulled down from the church’s website
