Following the case of adultery as confessed by gospel music sensation Sammie Okposo, Dunamis International Gospel Centre has removed the singer’s name from the list of gospel artistes billed to minister at the church’s concert on Friday.
A new flyer for the event shows that the ‘Welu Welu’ singer’s name is conspicuously missing despite being listed before the scandal surfaced.
The Delta state born music act who has also acted in a Nollywood movie confessed to his adulterous act and publicly apologised for cheating on his wife Ozioma with a US-based lady.
The 51-year old wrote on his Instagram page: ”Dear friends, I need to bring a very unfortunate incident to your attention as I am not proud of it but know that this is the right thing to do.
“On my recent trip to the USA (late 2021), I got intimately involved with a lady, knowing that this was not appropriate as a married man and a minister of the gospel. I am ashamed and regret my actions as it has caused a lot of pain to my dear wife, Ozioma, my family and I.
“As I work in making peace with God, repenting and asking for His forgiveness, I am suspending myself from all ministry work until full restoration as this is what is proper and what I know I owe God and His people.
To his wife Ozioma, Okposo pleaded, “To my wife, Ozioma. I am sincerely sorry I put you through this shameful and embarrassing situation. I broke your trust and disappointed you.
“Your forgiveness of my moral failure and poor judgement is important to me. I pray I will eventually be able to build back the trust and confidence every single day for the rest of my life.”
The families of both couple are expected to seek a resolution to the matrimonial crisis the infidelity of the singer might cause.
