There was report of show of power between her and the pastors at the Lekki branch to the utter dismay of the congregation. The wife had to stop attending the church and eventually left the church.

Devastated and worried over the marital problem, Pastor Femi Paul irrespective of efforts of church elders to intervene proved abortive. This was one of the main reasons Pastor Femi Paul couldn’t celebrate his 60th birthday recently because of the scandal this marriage is causing him. Many influential partners and supporters of his church have left the church.

Recently, when some media personalities visited the church, some reliable members were interviewed on what led to the couple’s separation.

Surprisingly, those who are supposed to show example are now victims of samples.
