Church responds to Solomon Akiyesi's disrupted wedding

Overcomers World Outreach, the church where Nollywood actor, Solomon Akiyesi attempted to marry another while still legally married, has responded to the incident that happened yesterday. See their statement below, written by Chika Moses, who is a journalist and the daughter of Bishop N.E. Moses, the General Overseer of the Overcomers Church.
What was meant to be a day of celebration – the wedding ceremony of one of our members Uloma Agwu to Mr. Solomon Akiyesi at the Overcomers Church World Outreach in Aguda – was sullied by an ugly incident. Immediately following the praise and worship session and before the officiating commenced, a woman who claims to be the lawful wife of the groom disrupted the ceremony. She was accompanied by people who sought only to wreck havoc in the church. They were unruly and violent.
Continue...



We regret the ugly series of events that followed this brash display. At the Overcomers Church, we do our due diligence to ensure a couple set to wed is right in the eyes of the law and in the eyes of God. To the best of our knowledge, Mr. Akiyesi, was unmarried. The Overcomers Church World Outreach regrets that the woman who disrupted the wedding chose such a time to do so. There is no ideal situation here, but it would have been right that she bring the case before church officials in a manner befitting a house of worship. This was not the case.

The groom, Mr. Akiyesi, has apologized to the Church, his bride-to-be, Ms. Agwu, and family and friends that gathered for the wedding. “This happened because I tried to cut corners,” he said. He admits he did not properly dissolve his previous marriage to his first wife and says he is determined to do what is necessary to rectify the awful situation. We apologize for the ugly scene this caused at our Church and apologize to those who witnessed it. It is not exemplary behavior and not who we are as a Church.

The General Overseer of the Overcomers Church World Outreach, Bishop N.E. Moses, addressed the congregation after order was restored.

Bishop Moses prayed for the couple, Mr. Akiyesi and Ms. Agwu, but he did not legally wed them – no documents were signed so as not to disobey the law. Mr. Solomon Akiyesi and Ms Uloma Agwu will not be legally joined together until the matter is properly settled by lawful authorities.

Our Bishop has urged us to take a lesson from this and be careful of the decisions we make in life, so the consequences don’t hurt us in the future. It is a lesson we take well.
We stand by Ms. Agwu. She has been a dedicated member of the church and we will continue to support her and Mr. Akiyesi. It is our hope and prayer that in all of this, God is glorified and His house of worship above reproach.

Chika Moses
Media Representative,
Overcomers Church World Outreach

    1. Quite unfortunate, most new generational churches are dragging christianity in d mud, they do whatever they like neither do they follow Christ' precept:displaying fake miracles,weding someone who is preggy not to talk of announcing barns of marriage and pastoral ethics are not adhered to. God is not author of confusion, folks pls beware of where you worship cos end time is near and end time churches are much now.

  30. From all this, all I can see is that the church is in support of divorce. As a church they should not be afraid to call a spade a spade and not all this diplospeak, there is a part in christian wedding procession that says "...speak now or forever hold your peace" she spoke, applaud her for it and condemn in its entirety the bigamy that was about to happen in the sight of God and man

  31. It's highly unfortunate to read these defences by the so called Chika Moses; daughter of the general overseer and the media rep of the church . You claimed to have done your "due diligence" when the man in the centre of the drama claimed "he tried to cut conner". How due was your diligence? So it's your church's standard to join heavily pregnant lady with white garment? SOMETHING IS FOUNDAMENTALY WRONG HERE! Oh so the "lagbaja" is even an Ms not a proper Miss. What happened? Pls the church will do itself good by going to God in repentance rather than trying to insult the intelligence of the readers. We know more than you are writing here pls!

  41. It was timely that the church responded to the incident. like said before there are always two sides to a story it seems Mr solokman had already decided to leave his legal wife and what a shoker that his legal wife has just given him more amunition to leave her. I feel for lilian cos now all those so called friends who backed her actions will now abandon her to fight for herself and the life of her unborn child. ALWAYS THINK BEFORE YOU ACT.

Bcos judging from wat u said, it looks like u guys dnt have plans of talking the above man into sticking to his first wife , as its bn preached. As for ur dedicated miss agwu "who is also pregnant outside wedlock", is dat what u also preach? Dat its ok for sisters to break homes and get pregnant for a married man? Miss bishop's daughter.

We gave offering over 5 times and everyone had to stand roll by roll and seat by seat so no one is exempted. Plus the members use money to tap into annointing ie if bishop says anything that the members believe is needed in their life, they go up to the alter to drop money as a way of linking to the "blessing"

    That they did nothing wrong? with the internet and master Google himself, is it difficult to get information about a man, a public figure like Solomon who comes from another town to wed in your church?
    They avoided it and now it has come hunting them.
    I wish there was no statement, 'cos this one no hold water at all.

  71. @Anon 12.33pm: my dear well said. Wen I read wat d church media rep said, I wz jst in total shock. Can u imagine, dey did findings about Solomon b4 dey agreed to wed dem nd Ewu abi wetin b dat her useless home breaker name. According to dem "to the best of our knowledge, Mr Akiyesi is unmarried" did u pple go to PH to do ur findings or it wz jst in Lag whr it will favour Ms homebreaker?? "We stand by Ms. Agwu. She has been a dedicated member of the church and we will continue to support her and Mr. Akiyesi". Jst hear dat, u pple r a disgrace as a church....U beta seek for God's forgiveness in trying to put asunder in an innocent woman's house all in d name of ur dedicated member has found a husband if not the wrath of God will surely visit u all.....Useless pple

  73. Your Statement shows that you want him to divorce his wife and come marry your pregnant church member.
    Sorry, things are not done that way o.
    It is your church's duty now to try and reconcile him with his wife if you are truly sorry.

  74. Wow.dis is really unbelieveable.I have been following dis story since yesterday n have been unable to comment.I must say dat d Chika Moses is wrong in saying dey investigated properly.sounds lyk dey r encouraging d man to divorce his 1st wife n come n marry Uloma.D man in question is really funny oh,how can u cut corners in marriage divorce?how cud he have wanted to marry another woman in d church?isn't he scared of the wrath of God?.I pray dis issue is resolved quickly cos both women r pregnant n such emotional turmoil is not good for a pregnant woman.God help us

    Instead of her barbaric act, she should have stopped the marriage plans.
    Like her dumb sister said, they were aware of the man's intention.
    Why not disrupt everything back then instead of waiting till the wedding to go and display your stupidity and creating more problems for your stupid self?
    How do y'all intend on putting a stop to jungle justice when y'all can't stop acting like barbarians?

  84. I do not completely believe the church was not aware of the man's marital status, from the press statement they tried as much as possible to avoid stating der wrongs, I have a question for u church, are u also not aware that the bride to be is pregnant, or u want to claim an oversight on that too?
    Wow!!!, and u claiming u wld go ahead when all the issue has been properly settled, properly settled u mean by whEn he(groom) officially divorces the first and legal wife, I hope u know its still wrong to go ahead with the wedding even if he properly divorces the wife, from you statement u said u stand by the bride to be, who is a dedicated member of the church, I hope when u are making ur decision u remember christ is the law, and his law supersedes any favour that is to be given due to the fact that a person is a dedicated member. Plz uphold christ law,not even the law of the land

  86. "No documents were signed so as not to break the law" that says it all about that church. That Lilian decided to disrupt the church programme is in bad taste but its quite obvious why she chooses to embarrass Solomon so - a serial cheater. Its soooo very obvious she needed to do sumthing drastic to man who has married 2 women legitimately and planning to marry a 3rd. Ezinne, Lilian and Uloma, I wonder how many women are in between this 3? One of these 2 women shd sue the bloody fool and send him to prison for at least 3 years! Rubbish!

  88. toluwalashee boo, my friend calm down, maybe because u are not yet married u do not know the wrath and anger of a woman scorned.

    Solomon is a fool! a big one. he deserved what he got from his wife lilian and much more.
    what the hell was he thinking? some men think they can do rubbish and walk away freely. well, thus nigga got served. (thumbs up lilian)

    and to the church, "to the best of ur info, Solomon is unmarried" that means no proper investigation was carried out.una just de wed mistresses to people husband abi?

    he is an actor, a public figure, that would have helped narrow ur fact finding mission. am sorry but am disappointed.

    this is a lesson to all u husband snatchers. I say this because I know uloma knows Solomon is a married man but damned all consequences.

  104. I don't think it's right for pregnant woman to be joined, still wearing white right in church. Once a woman is pregnant, the bed is obviously defiled. If the couple still choose to go on in marriage the best bet is to do a quiet registry wedding and get a pastor's blessing later on.

That it has already been done. They stand by their church member...they did not even say SHE didn't know he was married and they're defending her, so in other words, they are willing to join together a pregnant, husband-snatching mistress and an unfaithful idiot who doesn't know how to take responsibility for his actions.
