The KICC leader, while addressing Okafor's congregation during a service, described him as a fantastic pastor, who is humble and truly loves God.
He also advised the congregants against taking their senior pastor's leadership for granted.
“I want to tell you, you have a fantastic senior pastor in this church, a great man of God, a humble man, a man who truly loves God. Listen, do not take the leadership under which you are placed for granted. The quality of leadership determines what happens to you. When you are in a house where God has placed a good man, a great man, one who looks after you and cares for you, you must not take it for granted. Keep your eyes straight, and keep yourself focused," Ashimolowo said.
Legit.ng previously reported that a Christian leader, Dr Charles Apoki, in a viral video, had expressed deep disappointment with Ashimolowo's involvement in Okafor's wedding.
Apoki questioned the moral implications of officiating the wedding amid unresolved allegations, stating:
"I am ashamed of you. Any society that has no rules will collapse."
