Pastor Ituah Ighodalo, the senior pastor of the Trinity House Church, says he is now open to the possibility of remarriage.
The cleric’s wife, Ibidun Ighodalo, died of a heart attack in her sleep in June 2020, a few weeks before her 40th birthday.
In the years following her death, the cleric repeatedly stated that remarrying was not something he was considering.
He once said it would be difficult for him because “I gave everything” to his late wife and “have nothing left for anyone else.”
But in a recent interview with Nigeria Info FM, Ighodalo revealed that he now thinks remarrying is possible.
He said that while people have been pressuring him to remarry, he is choosing to follow his heart, which is gradually opening up to the idea.
The cleric further said that there is currently no one in view, as he is taking his time and trusting God while considering all necessary factors before making such a decision.
“When Ibidun died, I thought remarrying was impossible because I had given her so much. So, when I get asked about remarrying, my first response was I don’t have more love to give, but time heals,” he said.
“People are putting me under a lot of pressure, but I’m not listening to them, but to my heart. My heart is telling me that remarrying is possible.
“At the moment, there is no one in view, I’m just believing in God. It is not an easy decision, and there are things to consider.
“So, before I can get to that stage, we have to cross all the t’s and dot all the i’s.”

OK man of God. 🙏🏿
ReplyDeleteAs he should if he wants to
ReplyDeleteMay God guide you as you've considered remarrying.
ReplyDeleteMay God give his children peace with whatever decision he takes. They are so vulnerable at their age. I hope these are conversations he has had with them before going online.
ReplyDeletehis children will understand, is advisable for him to remarry to avoid so many temptation that will even spoil his family name and bring shame on his children. Remember that one day the children will also have their own family, who will be his companion?
DeleteWay forward man of God.
ReplyDeleteMay God help you
Why not?He even tried for 5 good years.
ReplyDeleteHe really tried!
DeleteGod will help him, remarrying is the best option for him considering his position as a Pastor.

For real! It’s the only blog I come to for credible news and the comments are fair-no nastiness like some other ones-I no longer visit. You can tell she does thorough news investigation before posting anything. She’s careful.
DeleteYou can say that again
DeleteKudos Stella

ReplyDeleteTime heals
ReplyDeleteYou've really tried after five good years.
ReplyDeleteis allowed, 5 years is not moi moi.
ReplyDeleteGood idea. Staying single brings so much temptation.
ReplyDeleteWay to go MOG
ReplyDeleteI wish him all the best. He's still very young not to condider getting married again, not to talk of the position he holds. 5 years is good enough to move on.
ReplyDelete67 years young.hmm
Delete67years is young yes it’s young
DeleteThe mentality that you people have about age is wrong
Abroad women in their 80s find love
Yes and there’s no shame to it
Anybody can start over at 67 much more a man who has a track record of accomplishments and excellence
Get off the road with your bland mind
Age shaming is an endemic in this part of the world. Quite disappointing. We only pretend to be woke
DeleteItuah is NOT 67 years old. The way some folks write nonsense with confidence is very annoying. He is a close friend and is 63/64.✌🏾
DeleteBest wishes Man of God.
ReplyDeleteWay to go..
He has tried, 5 years is not here...I wish you all the best pastor
ReplyDeleteHe should be careful when choosing a wife because hmmm...
ReplyDeleteMay God help you find a good woman sir.
ReplyDeleteI like how he kept the memory of Ibidun alive 💕
Good luck to him.
ReplyDeleteAll the best to him
ReplyDeleteHmmmm... I have a missed feeling. Third wife after two late.😥
ReplyDeleteWhich 2 late? Get the facts. He lost only Ibidun to death. The first wife separated from him.
DeleteAnon 18:44….a false witness writing nonsense with confidence. He was only married once before his late wife, he did not lose two women. Stop this deliberate misinformation.
