In a shocking revelation, Pastor Godwin Bamkole is facing accusations of marrying another man’s wife and allegedly taking away his seven children.

The accuser, Mr Uduak Usanga who claims to be the previous husband of Christiana Obot, asserts that Bankole’s actions are not only normally questionable but also demand the return of 6 million naira he paid as bride price.

Christiana Obot, the woman in question, had initially beeen married to her first husband, with whom she had three children.

Subsequently, she married the accuser, Mr Usanga who together they had four children totalling seven.

The accuser questions the pastor’s choice to marry a woman with a significant age gap, urging him to consider a younger partner.

Furthermore, he alleges having evidence of marriage payments and documentations related to their traditional marriage and wedding.

The aggrieved questions whether pastor Bankole’s church doctrine permits such unions and accuses him of stealing his wife and children.

The accuser claims that the pastor is not only unapologetic but also threatening legal action through court and the law enforcement.

In response to the accusations, the clergy, pastor Godwin Bankole had pleaded with the accuser to come to his house and collect his 6 million naira.

This ongoing marital dispute involving a pastor had stirred controversy, prompting many questions on ethical conduct within religious communities.

As tension escalates, the demand for the return of 6 million naira remains at the forefront of this complex and contentious atmosphere between accused and the alleged husband.
