Popular Nigerian gospel singer, Paul Nwokocha, has confirmed the end of his marriage with his second wife, Goodness Nwokocha, two years after tying the knot.
Nwokocha had accused his first wife, Alice Nwokocha, during his second wedding in 2023 of maltreatment, leading to their separation, hence his subsequent second marriage to Goodness, who hails from Nkpa in Bende local government area of Abia State.
A source close to the family disclosed that trouble began in May last year after the new wife was allegedly subjected to ill-treatment by the gospel singer.
“Goodness was said to have had no prior relationship with the gospel singer before their marriage. She reportedly relocated from Lagos to marry him at the insistence of his uncles, without conducting any background checks.
“As of now, the bride price has been returned to the family of Paul Nwokocha, signalling the formal end of the union,” the source said.
Confirming the development, Nwokocha, in a video shared online, accused Goodness of sending nude images and videos to other men.
“Greetings to you all, all my friends and well-wishers, thank you so much, my name still remains Paul Nwokocha, a minister of the gospel.
“I have heard so many people talk about my marital problem on social media, and I want to tell you something, if I marry today and I find out that the wife I married is doing abominable things before God and man, I will send you out of my house.
“Hear me again, If I marry today and I find out that the wife I married is doing abominable things before God and man, I will send you out of my house without any apology.
“You that is talking and showing pity on her, how will you feel if the woman you call your wife is taking nude photos and videos and sending them to men, how will you feel if you find such thing, how will you feel? I need your comment.
“I married a wife, not a whore. So, I owe nobody apology for this, stop calling me names. Not even minding how long I married you, if I find out you are doing evil before God, you are going out of my house,” the gospel singer declared.
