Nigerian gospel singer Paul Nwokocha has opened up on the actions that led to his divorce from his estranged wife, as he accused her of circulating her nude photos and videos with male friends online.
He blamed his wife’s alleged “abominable acts” as the reason behind his decision.
“If I marry today and find out that the wife I married is doing an abominable thing before God and before man, I will send you out of my house,” he alleged in a currently circulating video.
“I married a wife, not a whore. So, I owe nobody an apology for this,” he said of his decision to part ways with his second wife.
Our findings however showed that the latest is the singer’s second divorce in as many years.
It was gathered that he married his second wife, Goodness Nwokocha, in September 2023, barely a month after parting ways with his first wife, Alice Nwokocha.
His separation from Alice was reportedly due to what he described as “maltreatment,” including her alleged refusal to serve him food.
The singer has previously expressed his belief that marriage should be “for better, for better”—a deviation from the conventional “for better, for worse” vow.
A family source, speaking on the condition of anonymity, disclosed that Goodness’s marriage to Nwokocha was fraught with difficulties from the start. She allegedly endured mistreatment in her new home, where she was treated more like a housemaid than a wife, reports ABNTV earlier on Saturday.
The source further revealed that Goodness had no prior romantic history with Nwokocha before their marriage. She had relocated from Lagos to be with him at the insistence of his uncles, without conducting any background checks.
By May 2024, tensions had escalated, and with the return of the bride price, their marriage was officially over.
