So it looks like the celebrity divorce battle of the new millennium is going to be an African affair, as Dr and Mrs Oyakhilome shape up for their impending court date.
News broke earlier that Anita had filed for divorce against the charismatic pastor in the United Kingdom, citing ‘adultery’ and ‘unreasonable behaviour’, whilst it also emerged that all pictures and anything remotely tied to the vice president of Christ embassy had been torn down from the church website.
Well Mrs Oyakhilome has fired a returning salvo to her husband, as according to Nigerian newspaper Premium Times, her lawyers have responded to the cyber attack on their client saying, that Anita is definitely done with Pastor Chris and that there does not exist even the teeniest possibility for an out-of-court settlement.
Anyone hoping to have avoided the long, drawn-out, airing of dirty laundry Western style celebrity divorce is in for a big disappointment, as these two has already gone down that road and the response from Anita’s lawyers shuts the door on that possibility, definitively!
Her lawyers, Attwaters Jameson Hill Solicitors, told the newspaper “It is with great sadness that our client, Pastor Anita Oyakhilome, has come to the conclusion that her marriage to Pastor Christian Oyakhilome has irretrievably broken down and regrettably there is no hope of reconciliation”
