FAMOUS 75-year-old Kaduna-based cleric, Evangelist Matthew Owojaiye, who went to marry his first crush after the death of his wife, has welcomed a twin.
The new wife, identified as Abosede, is a Professor at the Federal College of Education, Kaduna State.
Both are said to be indigenes of Egbe in Kogi State, Central Nigeria.
It was gathered that Evangelist Owojaiye had approached Abosede some 50 years ago, particularly in 1969, but she declined on the grounds that she was too young.
As a result, the fiery Evangelist went ahead to marry another woman called Jolomi, who was the former Proprietress of Christ Ambassador College in Kaduna.
Both reportedly got married in 1977, but unfortunately Jolomi passed in March 2018 while it could not be ascertained the number of children they had together.
As of the time the evangelist lost his wife, Jolomi in 2018, Professor Abosede was said to be unmarried.
Armed with the information, Evangelist Owojaiye went back to Abosede, and they both got married in June 29, 2019!
As of the time of the wedding, Abosede was over 62 years old while Evangelist Owojaiye was already 72 years old.
Early in the week, the septuagenarian cleric and his 65-year-old crush, had incredibly welcomed their twin babies as gleaned from ©Anne Igoche.
Announcing the passing of her late wife on his Facebook wall, Evangelist Owojaiye had posted:
“SO MY WIFE JOLOMI LEFT FOR HEAVEN THIS MORNING.
“She was a jewel. She loved the Lord with passion. She pursued Jesus, lived for Jesus. She gave me 100% support in the work. Her family has been too excellent! The body of Christ has been wonderful!…
“The Lord told me, get busy and finish your assignment.”
