Mrs Helen Oritsejafor, the wife of Popular Nigerian Pastor, Ayo Oritsejafor, has personally broken her silence as she speaks on the current state of her marriage to the former President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN).
Last week, news broke that their marriage of 25 years which produced 3 children had crashed.
The reports claimed the couple is now divorced and Helen has moved out of their matrimonial home with their kids to the UK.
Addressing the claims, Mrs Oritsejafor said in a Facebook that it is totally unbelievable and reprehensible.
She noted that she upholds the tenants of her Christian faith, marriage, and her home as an important part of her life.
According to her, she and her husband, Ayo Oritsejafor are not divorced and she has never been unfaithful to her husband.
She further urged the public to disregard the fake news adding that she has briefed her Lawyer and all necessary action would be taken on those peddling the rumours.
She wrote: “Fam, my attention has been drawn to the fake and malicious news making rounds on blogs, social media platforms and the newspapers against my character and that of my family. It’s totally unbelievable, reprehensible and unthinkable and it’s important that I make the facts clear.
“I am a wife, a mother and a woman of God, and I uphold the tenets of my Christian faith and marriage. My family and home is the most important part of my life. I therefore appeal to everyone to put our interest and that of our lovely kids, above the need to profit from this baseless endeavor. My Husband and I are not divorced, unless people get divorced on social media and I have never been unfaithful to my husband, whom I love very dearly.
“These are works of the devil and his agents to dent my character and good works. Over the years, I have committed my time and resources towards reaching out to the needy, providing support to widows and giving scholarships to orphans.
“I have also taught and mentored a lot of young women on the principles of building and living happily with their spouses through my various platforms both on and offline. I cannot go against my own beliefs.
“Don’t forget that live is a seed. To carry a baseless news not supported is not only malicious but punishable under the law of the land.
“I plead with the general public to give my family the privacy it needs and disregard cheap attempts to dent my image.
“In retrospect to the fake news, I have briefed my lawyers and all necessary legal actions are being taken.
Thank you all and stay blessed.”
