Apostle Chibuzor joins aged couple amid backlash
The cleric made the disclosure in a Facebook post on Monday, March 30, 2026, just one day after the controversial wedding of his non-verbal autistic adopted son, Aboy Chibuzor.
In the post, Apostle Chibuzor explained that while preaching one day, he received a divine instruction that many of his church members were cohabitating without God joining them together because bride price had not been paid.
He immediately called them out during the service, and a total of 280 men and women responded and came forward.

In his words:
"One day I was preaching about salvation.
And I got a ministration that there are so many people cohabiting and having children without paying bride price for there the woman living with them and joining themselves without GOD joining them.
They should come out.
A total of 280 men and women came out.
I immediately set up a committee headed by the church welfare team.
And mandated
1. All most wed before 7.
2. Travel to all there villages pay all the ladies bride price.
3. Buy 140 wedding gowns don’t hire.
4. Buy 140 wedding suits, 140 shirts, 140 shoes , 140 tire.
5. Pay for drinks, foods, wedding cake, wedding rings.
And by the grace of GOD everything was achieved and I wedded all of them before 7 days including a 73 years old man and 63 years old woman."
“So it did not start today,” he added, apparently addressing the heavy backlash that followed his decision to find a wife for Aboy Chibuzor.
He also shared the video of the event.
