• Pastor Tolu Odukoya's revelation about her marital status has sparked reactions, with Nigerians sharing diverse opinions

Associate Senior Pastor of Fountain of Life Church, Tolu Odukoya, confirmed the end of her marriage in a video that has gone viral on social media.

Pastor Tolu, who is the sister of actor and Pastor Jimmy Odukoya, made the revelation while speaking with Truthtable where she shared that she and her now-ex-husband have been separated since 2021.

The clergywoman disclosed that the separation was due to circumstances beyond her control.

Pastor Tolu revealed that over the last ten years, she has experienced the death of her marriage, her stepmother, her father's twin sister, and her father.

"“I’ll say I’m separated. Most of you don’t know I’m separated and that’s actually defined or has shaped my life. It was circumstances beyond my control. You know, sometimes when you get into marriage, you don't do so to leave. It is a death in a way. When your marriage is over, it is a death. In the last ten years, I've experienced the death of my marriage, my stepmother, my dad's twin sister, and my father," she said in part.

“My ex-husband is a great man… but if God doesn’t ordain you guys to be together and you force-fit yourselves, the likelihood of staying together is very low,” she explained.

"My life is not an easy one; it has not gone the way I planned it," Pastor Tolu Odukoya said.

Pastor Tolu is the daughter of the late Pastor Taiwo Odukoya, who was the co-founder and senior pastor of The Fountain of Life Church, located in Ilupeju, Lagos.
