The senior pastor of Champions Royal Assembly, Kubwa, Abuja, Joshua Iginla, may have laid it all on the altar during a church sermon on Sunday.
The popular preacher apparently confessed to cheating on his wife, Yemisi, in front of his congregation. It is unclear if his now estranged wife was present in church when he made the confession.
The shocking confession was streamed live on the church’s official YouTube page, Champions TV, on Sunday.
Mr Iginla talked about how he and his wife were headed for divorce and have spent the past few years as a united front while fighting adultery-related battles.
The pastor, who said he believed he is the first man of God “to do this”, said all he wants his peace of mind.
He told his startled congregation that his wife cheated on him and failed to turn a new leaf, a burden he has borne for the last seven years.
Mr Iginla also admitted to cheating on his wife which resulted in a child, just as she had a child for another man while they remained married to each other.
“When my wife cheated and had an ‘unholy’ child, I covered her up but when mine happened, she started blackmailing me,” the preacher said in his address.
The clergyman also lamented how some of his colleagues and “sons in ministry” ridiculed him and his marriage.
“This is why I urge us to pray for our leaders. It’s not easy for me to come out in public to say this, but I warned my wife, she didn’t listen rather she preferred to turn me to a laughing stock’.”
