Nigerian actor-turned-pastor Jimmy Odukoya has introduced Pastor Mo Jasmine as his new wife to members of the Fountain of Life Church congregation.
Jimmy made the announcement during the church’s Sunday service, where he presented Mo Jasmine to worshippers as his wife for the first time publicly.
The senior pastor, who assumed leadership of the church in 2023 following the death of his father, Taiwo Odukoya, disclosed that he had been navigating his pastoral responsibilities alone before finding a new partner.
Addressing the congregation, he said his previous marriage had ended before he took over the leadership of the church.
“So, you know ever since I became your pastor, I was doing this work of life alone. And you know that the Bible says it is not good. It said I will find somebody suitable,” he said.
He subsequently introduced his wife, saying, “Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce to you for the first time Pastor Mrs Odukoya.”
The church also congratulated the couple in a post on its Instagram page, sharing photographs and videos of them.
“Congratulations to our senior pastor and First Lady Pastor Mo,” the church wrote.
The announcement came as a surprise to some social media users, who had believed that Jimmy was still married to his former wife, Kemi Odukoya.
Jimmy and Kemi got married in 2013 and have two children together. However, the circumstances surrounding the dissolution of their marriage have not been publicly established.
