Pastor Ituah Ighodalo, Senior Pastor of Trinity House Church, has firmly addressed and dismissed circulating rumours suggesting that he secretly married a Nollywood actress. In a statement posted on his social media platforms, the influential clergyman called the reports “unfounded” and urged the public to ignore the baseless gossip that has been circulating online.
The rumours surfaced earlier this week, quickly gaining traction on social media, and prompting speculation about the pastor’s personal life. The unverified reports claimed that Pastor Ighodalo had entered into a secret marriage with an unnamed Nollywood star, causing a stir among his followers and the media.
Pastor Ighodalo’s Response
In his social media statement, Pastor Ighodalo clarified that the rumours were completely false, urging people to be mindful of spreading misinformation. “I want to make it clear that these claims are utterly untrue,” the pastor said. “The reports circulating are baseless, and I have no intention of engaging with these falsehoods. I kindly ask the public and the media to focus on what is true and important.”
Pastor Ighodalo also took the opportunity to emphasize his commitment to his late wife, Pastor Ibidun Ighodalo, who tragically passed away in June 2020. The couple had been widely respected for their work in the ministry and their strong family values. Pastor Ighodalo, who has kept a low profile since Ibidun’s passing, continues to maintain a focus on his faith, family, and church.
“I am fully dedicated to the work of God, my children, and my church family. I ask for privacy and respect as I continue this journey of healing and service,” he added.
The Role of Social Media in Misinformation
The rumours quickly spread across social media platforms, with many users speculating about the details of the alleged marriage. However, despite Pastor Ighodalo’s direct and clear response, some continued to fuel the speculation, demonstrating the ease with which misinformation can spread in the digital age.
Several fans and supporters of Pastor Ighodalo took to Twitter and Instagram to voice their support for the pastor, praising him for addressing the issue head-on. One social media user expressed their appreciation, saying, “It’s commendable how Pastor Ighodalo handled this. He’s always been transparent and focused on his ministry. Let’s respect his privacy.”
Nollywood Actress Involved
While the actress at the centre of the rumours has not been publicly named, speculation has linked several popular Nollywood stars to the supposed marriage. However, no concrete evidence has emerged to support these claims, and the actress involved has not commented publicly on the matter.
For now, both Pastor Ighodalo and any potential individuals named in the rumour have remained silent, choosing not to engage further on the subject.
Pastor Ighodalo’s Focus on Ministry
Despite the rumours, Pastor Ighodalo remains focused on his religious duties and the growth of his church, Trinity House. He has consistently been an advocate for social change, faith-based initiatives, and community outreach. As a well-respected pastor and philanthropist, his work continues to impact countless lives, and his message of faith, love, and compassion remains central to his ministry.
“I am committed to serving my congregation and community with love and humility,” he said. “Let us all focus on the bigger picture of spreading the message of hope and healing in our world today.”
Conclusion
Pastor Ituah Ighodalo’s swift denial of the marriage rumours puts an end to the speculation and reminds the public of the importance of verifying information before sharing it. As the pastor continues to focus on his mission, his supporters are encouraged to respect his privacy and remain focused on the positive work he continues to do in the community. With the rumours put to rest, Pastor Ighodalo can now move forward, continuing his dedication to both his family and his ministry.
