Pastor Jimmy Odukoya's appearance questioned
Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported that media personality Morayo Brown's husband, Mr Brown Afolabi, raised pointed questions about Pastor Jimmy Odukoya's appearance and personal choices.
The remarks came during what appeared to be a conversation between Mr Brown and Morayo, in which she had defended the pastor's decision to remarry.
Rather than engaging solely with the marriage debate, Mr Brown steered the discussion toward what he described as a more significant concern that most people had been ignoring.
