Pastor Ituah Ighodalo clears air on getting married to Kate Henshaw

The senior pastor of Trinity House, Pastor Ituah Ighodalo, has debunked rumours claiming he is set to marry Nollywood actress, Kate Henshaw.

The speculations have made the rounds on social media amid claims the ‘aso-ebi’ is being prepared already.

But in an interview with media personality, Osayuwamen Saleh on UpgradeTV, Pastor Ituah insisted he has no such plans.

He said, “I loved my wife so much. I take each day as it comes. I don’t know what the future holds.

“About an Aso Ebi coming out, well, not to the best of my knowledge.

“The problem with social media is that people feel they can do whatever they want.

“Whoever is spreading this rumour is making money from it. When they are done spreading it, they should come and pay tithe.”

Pastor Ituah was married to the late Ibidunni Ighodalo, who died in June 2020.

The couple had adopted two children, a boy and a girl, before her death.

Since her death, Pastor Ituah has remained devoted to raising his children and focusing on his ministry.

‘Aregbesola will never injure me’ – Adeyeye reveals Tinubu’s comment during meeting

Prof. Olusola Adeyeye, a former federal lawmaker and elder statesman in Osun State, has said that he has made multiple attempts to mend the relationship between President Tinubu and former Governor and Minister, Rauf Aregbesola.

Adeyeye, who expressed sadness over the sour relationship between the two old friends, suggested that all efforts to bring them to the table has proven abortive.

Appearing on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, the former lawmaker revealed that Tinubu trusted Aregbesola with his life while the former Governor believed so much in him.

“It makes me sad that things are not working out between Aregbesola and Tinubu. [I’ve said it before that] if you want to get between Aregbesola and Tinubu you’ll fail,” he said.

“They were so close. I was at a meeting in which Tinubu said: if you see me sleeping and you see Rauf coming with a dagar or a knife, don’t wake me up, Rauf will never injure me’.

“For Rauf, the entity in the universe bigger than Tinubu was God. So, I never knew what happened between them. But I have the feeling that what happened between them was Rauf thinking that Tinubu sided his own brother against him.

“I tried my best to settle them. I tried my very best. Let me tell you, power can be a terrible thing. It is treacherous in Nigeria. I seek nothing.

“Those who know me know…I’ve been long in politics before Tinubu and Aregbesola…only God elevates… if the two of them wants to settle, it’s not impossible but I’ve attempted in the past, not once, not twice, severally,” he said.
