What changed his mind, he said, was public pressure. When people began linking his unmarried status to the source of his spiritual power, Odumeje felt he could not allow the speculation to taint what he considered a God-given gift. "I didn't want that to stain the power that Jesus gave me," he said.
God showed Odumeje a ring
Before making any move, Odumeje described a private spiritual moment in his room that he says set everything in motion. He had just returned from a family deliverance session when he received what he interpreted as a divine signal.
"On that day, I had come back from family deliverance. The Lord said to me, 'Stand up, pick your car and drive to three streets,'" he recounted. According to him, God pointed to the second street and told him his wife would be walking out of it.
He drove out but initially went past the street without stopping. Then came another instruction.

"God said, 'You have passed there. Turn back.' Immediately I turned, I saw my wife coming out from that street," he said.
Odumeje is married to Uju Ohanaemere. The couple has five children together.
