Christ Embassy in disarray as Pastor Oyakhilome’s wife, Anita, finally files for divorce…Accuses hubby of adultery


Anita and Chris getting set for divorce battle

This is definitely not the best of time for embattled stylish man of God, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome  and members of his very popular church, Believers Love World globally known as Christ Embassy.
After months of speculation over the marriage crisis between Pastor Oyakhilome and Anita, his wife, a new report monitored by SHOWBIZPLUSng claimed the latter has now filed for a divorce in a London court.
In a report published by Cable News, the wife is seeking a divorce on the grounds of “unreasonable behaviour” and “adultery”.
 She allegedly outlined several allegations against the Pastor which cannot be published for legal reasons.

 The divorce case, with Suit No FD14D01650, was filed on April 9, 2014 at Divorce Section A, Central Family Court, First Avenue House, High Holborn, London, UK, on Anita’s behalf by Attwaters Jameson Hill Solicitors, a full-service law firm with expertise in commercial law and a strong consumer focus in family, wills and estate, personal injury law and medical negligence.
 According to the online portal, Pastor Oyakhilome had been making efforts to avoid divorce in the hope that the wife would eventually have a change of mind, however, Decree nissi was served on the charismatic pastor in his hotel room during a recent visit to the UK.
 Decree nissi, in legal terms, is like a yellow card in a football match which is a precursor to a red card (“decree absolute”) if no new evidence is provided to stall proceedings.
 Church insiders said Oyakhilome had been hoping for rapprochement, but he was left with no option than to receive the papers when the lawyers cornered him at his hotel in London. The decree absolute, which will effectively end the marriage, is expected to be issued soon while terms of the divorce will be worked out by the lawyers on both sides.
 Anita recently wanted to go public with the details of her allegations against the husband but reached an informal agreement to sheathe her sword in the interest of the church.
Recall that some church members had sometime in May 10, 2014 launched a facebook campaign, asking: “Where is Rev. Anita Oyakhilome?”
 They said Pastor Chris and Rev. Anita must unite “for the sake of the gospel, the church and their two beautiful daughters”. They quoted Malachi 2:16 in the Message Bible: “I hate divorce, says the God of Israel.”
The facebook page, which has over 3,300 “likes”, was opened with a stated mission: “This is a Call to Prayer for all believers who understand God’s heart concerning marriage and a Call to Action by Pst. Chris. #DoWhatYouPreach.”
 Officials of the church quickly moved to deny any rift between the pastor couple. One official, Kenneth Achumasara, told the media last June thus: “I can tell you authoritatively that there is no issue between Pastor Chris and his wife, Anita… If you go to the UK now, you will see her along with the kids. She is still with him and there is no issue between them. I have been with him for 22 years and the Pastor Chris I know cannot even utter such words as reported. He will never address such a gathering. She will soon be in Nigeria for a programme and I will definitely invite you to have access to her.”
Meanwhile, this latest development we reliably gathered has put the revered church in disarray with senior pastors and leading church members being divided over it.
 Oyakhilome is the President of Believers’ Love World Inc, the registered name of the Christian ministry, while his wife is the Vice President.
They have two teenage daughters, Sharon and Charlyn.
