It is not easy to be up there without getting a fair share of the scandals of life from time to time. This is more so when you are a man of God and many people look up to you.

"I have made all efforts to persuade her, I went as far as meeting some of our elders, senior pastors and bishops. I even met redeemed Christian church of God general overseer, Pastor Enoch Adeboye and all those that are concerned to help me beg her but she refused to come back home. I also wrote to the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) on the issue.." These were the words of Rev Chris Kwakpovwe, publisher of Our Daily Manna, who is currently enmeshed in a dirty adultery scandal with his ex-wife, Pastor Dolapo.

She has dragged him to court for allegedly impregnating his secretary when they were still married. She also accused Rev Chris of fathering a child whose name was given as Tijiri. One source said the lady he allegedly impregnated his now his wife.

Their divorce hearing came up for hearing on February 26th at the Ikeja Magistrate Court 51, before Mrs Folaranmi. Rev Chris gave his own side of the story, stating how he had tried to make peace with his estranged wife but she refused. He confirmed that he got married to Pastor Dolapo on July 10,1999.
