"Why I'm taking a new wife one year after my wife's death" - Anselm Madubuko

A year after his wife Connie Madubuko died, the Head Pastor of Revival Assembly Church, Apostle Anselm Madubuko is getting ready to marry 33 year old Kenyan gospel artist, Emmy Kosgei. Their wedding will hold on Saturday August 31 at Revival Miracle Cathedral in Lagos. Apostle Madubuko explains why he's remarrying so soon.

He tells Encomium magazine:
"It is how I have chosen to do it. I have decided to move on. I found out that even 10 years will not be enough to forget my late wife. 20 years still will not be enough to forget my late wife. The time anybody remarries has nothing to do with your former partner. And that's one thing people fail to understand. We were married for many years and suddenly I was left alone. It's about many things, companionship. Once that person close to you goes, you can never forget the person. It is a matter of picking up one's pieces and moving on. I can't forget Connie, she was my life, it's just about moving on. I don't listen to people. If you re-marry or don't re-marry people must talk. I thought I wasn't going to re-marry but God said that is not his plans for me. He chose Emmy Kosgei for me. I chose to trust God more than my mind. I am looking forward to having more children."

  15. If u like remarry after 1 week, 1 month, 2 years... Whatever! The bottom line is that double standards exist for men and women. If it were u who died now ur people would have said ur wife killed u to remarry the lover she had while u were alive. It all boils down to respect for ur departed loved one.

  19. #issorite. Connie made him though...Connie was bimbo odukoyas best friend.bimbo was her chief brides maid back in the days,they all made their hubby's .today both of them are late and their pastor hubby's remarried to non- Nigerians ,bimbos hubby married SA now he goes for Kenyan ,lol u can't trace those chics. Bishop mrs nkechy iloputaife of victory Christian center stayed single for 20yrs after her hubby the bishop was assassinated ( I don't expect them to do same) she powered the church till date and raised their glorious kids,bimbos hubby has a new baby and I'm sure madubuko will have his by next year.by the way his first son has a child already so he's a grand dad. # justsaying

  56. TRUE TRUE, Na who die na him lose o. Personally I think its too soon sha. But on d other hand I don't know him maybe he is d kind that cannot stay without doing 'it'. So to avoid sin he should re-marry.

  65. People are just jealous. If you have chopped a Kenya woman's stuff, you will also feel what the man felt. It is that good. It could easily be mistaken for a revelation from God to permanently keep it. He is lying about God telling him or delusional or simply a smart guy. He also knows that Naija women should not be touched with a million foot poll if you have kids from a previous relationship. They do not see anything wrong in claiming to love you and treating your children like shit especially if they also have kids with you. For you people talking about age, don't worry, all things being equal, this man will live longer than than most Nigerian 18 year olds. He does not have any stress. He shows up once a week, sold you this give me your 10 percent garbage, smile to the bank the next day, while you struggle the rest of week. You see how rosy his cheeks are. He is living like an emperor and rock star combined. I am sure he tells you fools that he is praying and fasting for you. He is really fasting. I know you believe that too.
