On her part, Ifeanyi recounted how amazing it been since she met the clergyman, adding that she was initially unsure of what lies ahead of their union.

“I had no idea the heights that you would take me to, nor the depths and wonders that you would show me in life; all I knew was that you were a very special man – a unique man, a true man of God; and I was being given the privilege and honour of journeying life alongside you,” she wrote.
