“I am the righteousness of God in Christ. I am born of God the life of God is in me; Christ in me the hope of glory I am free from the law, from the power of sin. I am no longer bound by the fear of men,” he wrote.

“God’s grace is available sufficient and working for me. Jesus already saved me not because of any works of righteousness that I have done, but because of His own compassion and mercy, by the cleansing of the new birth (spiritual transformation, regeneration) and renewing by the Holy Spirit.”

It would be recalled that the gospel singer had taken to his Instagram page where he apologized to his wife for cheating on her.

Okposo’s apology came barely 24 hours after a lady by the alias African Doll accused him of impregnating her.

According to the lady, she met the singer in Dallas, United States of America, during one of his tours.

They became close and started an affair which led to the pregnancy.

Things became sour after she informed the gospel singer that she was pregnant.

‘Now I know why some ladies don’t show off their husbands on social media – IG dancer Janemena

Popular Instagram dancer Janemena has disclosed how she now knows why a lot of women don’t show off their husbands on social media.

The dancer disclosed this via her Instagram Stories on Monday, October 25, 2021.

“To every lady who does not show off their spouse, I understand you now. It is because social media will destroy it. It is because miserable, sad and lonely ‘not by choice’ people do not like anything that makes one happy unless they are happy and it rubs off on you somehow,” she wrote. “I’m a very young girl and I’m making a lot of changes to my life. But it’s still the audacity for me.”

Janamena and her hubby tied the knot about a year ago and only recently their union was tested on social media after Tonto Dikeh revealed her former boyfriend, Prince Kpokpogri, had her sex tapes. The IG dancer went on to sue Dikeh over her malicious and damaging comments.

In a plot twist, a leaked audiotape where Kpokpogri admitted to having sex with the IG dancer after she got married surfaced on social media.
