Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that Apostle Joshua Selman had opened up about his marital status in an old video.

Recall that on Wednesday, December 10, 2025, Selman made waves online after he declared that one of his church workers, Sandra Areh aka Selwoman, is his "love." The clergyman had surprised guests at Sandra’s birthday party, where he called her “my love.” His affectionate words caused a stir.
