The wife of renowned Nigerian cleric, Enoch Adeboye, Pastor Foluke Adeboye, has opened up about the drastic personal sacrifice she made after giving her life to Christ.

In a resurfaced throwback video currently circulating online, Folu Adeboye shared how her lifestyle changed dramatically in the early days of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG.

She revealed that before becoming born again, she had a strong passion for fashion and owned several gold items, including jewellery that she had already set aside for her young child, who was under two years old at the time.

However, after joining the church where wearing such items was discouraged, she made a bold decision to part with them entirely.

“Every woman loves fashion,” she said. “By the time we became born again, it was a taboo for you to have them.”

Rather than keep or sell the valuables, Folu said she threw all her gold possessions into the lagoon.

She recalled that a family friend had questioned her choice, suggesting she could have given the items to her mother to sell. But she declined.

“Whatever is not good for me is not good for my mother,” she explained.

Folu also revealed that she briefly turned to copper accessories as an alternative, admitting she spent significantly on them at the time.

Despite the scale of her sacrifice, she maintains she has no regrets.

“What would I say I miss? Not much, I have already sold myself,” she added.

Afrobeats singer, Mr Real has criticised his colleagues and Nigerian music fans for releasing new music and going to clubs despite the escalating insecurity in the country.

Speaking in a recent video broadcast, the Legbegbe crooner accused his fellow musicians of being insensitive for continuing to release music despite the security situation in the country.

Mr Real explained that he has been unable to drop new music due to the current mood of the nation.

He said, “I wake up to terrible news everyday. I am even scared to drop songs because of the terrible things happening in Nigeria. Artists who are releasing songs are trying because I don’t know the kind of mind they have. How do some artists do it?

“This country is burning. People are dying. Some individuals have turned insecurity to business and we still go to club. That is the problem.

“You can argue that you have your own life to life. I also can’t deny that I don’t club or enjoy my life. But can’t you see that it is not normal? It is like we are under a spell to be docile no matter how worse things get. Is it normal?”
