The Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Mrs. Lola Fagbemi has urged couples to make God the basis of their marriage.

Fagbemi stressed that the inability to pray to God before and after marriage, as well as lack of sincerity between couples had led to the collapse of so many relationships, as they could not cope with life situations.

The commissioner said this, yesterday, during the marriage ceremony between daughter of Ondo State Governor, Teniola Akeredolu and Olatunde Oyeyiola Willaims in Owo, Ondo State.


She also charged the newly wedded couple to put God first, be sincere to themselves, desist from extramarital affairs, as it could do much harm to their marriage and life.

The event was attended by the creme-de-la-creme of the country, including the National leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, former National Chairman of APC, Chief Bisi Akande, Senator Abiola Ajimobi and the Olowo of Owo, Oba Gbadegesin Ogunoye.

Other dignitaries at the occasion were South West Governors, Babajide
Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State, some governors of Eastern and Northern states, National Assembly Members, APC stalwarts, among others.

Chris oyakhilome based his marriage on devil right?

You see we Africans abdicate our duties recklessly.

No wonder that collectively we are getting nowhere.
God already gives us everything : free will, sense, life, grace, health and more. Yet we cannot see that the onus is now on us to work with all that.

Na wa.

Best advice.

Lord, I can't seems to love my wife:wrong
Lord, I am trying to love my wife :wrong
Lord, I think I can love my wife : wrong
Lord, I love my wife:wrong

Lord, please love my wife through me! Correct

Marriage is made up of Man woman and Christ

Are you married?

I think a thought process like this makes people shift their responsibility. When things go wrong, they have something or someone to blame. Its either the devil,or because God is angry with them but never because of what they did or didnt do.

Even pastors have had divorce so we are tempted to ask "what went wrong". The truth is God is not coming down to wave a magic wand and fix your marital issues, humans do, which is why a marriage that will crash will crash even if the pope blesses it.

We fail to take simple advice and we keep making mistake and blaming others

All the pastors their marriage crashed I guess they invited devil in their marriage.

Godly character

Not necessary character marriage is very deep. People with good character still loose their marriages

Tell them again oOo. We've taken God to be a deity that'll even help us pull shit out of our asses. Everything is God God God....we no dey tire

God is in control

She's said the truth, that's why marriages this days don't last because they failed to put God first.

Wen we say put God first. Wat does DT sentence mean?
because we use such cliche as an alibi to be lazy nd not want to delibrately get involved in taking constructive action in committing to DT marriage so DT it works.

Der is a place for God ND der are also responsibilities we need to shoulder to make it wrk.

A good venture marriage inclusive wrks on principles ND not on cliches.
