Speaking during the special Victory Hour programme on Wednesday, February 19, Adeboye recounted how the woman, a senior official at WAEC and a mother, suddenly appeared in his office several years ago with an outrageous claim.
“There was a particular woman years ago, she woke up one day and came to my office and told me, ‘God said you are my husband.’ I told her I was married and I am a pastor. She herself was married, a big woman working with WAEC. One of her sons is a bank manager in Ota. From her looks, she might even be older than I am,” he recalled.
Despite being told off, the woman remained relentless, even after the matter was reported to both her husband and the police.
"We sent for her husband, she didn’t change. We brought the matter to the Police DPO, who asked her to stop coming to the camp. She did not change. She said, ‘You are joking.’”
The situation escalated when the woman issued a direct threat to Pastor Adeboye’s wife, stating that she would kill her if she did not allow the marriage to happen.
“She told my wife, ‘If you don’t allow me to marry him, I will kill you.’”
In a shocking twist, Adeboye narrated how, while in London working on the church’s Sunday School manual, he received an unexpected call from the same woman.
“Then one day, I went to London to prepare the Sunday School pamphlets. I never told anyone I was coming. I wanted to do the work quietly. As soon as I got to the house in London, the phone rang—it was in the days of landlines. When I picked the phone, she said, ‘Welcome. I have been waiting for you. You will see me soon. I’m at the next bus stop,’” he said.
Alarmed by the woman's relentless pursuit, Adeboye warned her that British law enforcement would not be as lenient as their Nigerian counterparts.
“I had to threaten her that, ‘You know this is London. If you come here, I will call the police. Police here can’t be settled like the police in Nigeria,” he recounted.
The saga took a dramatic turn when, after praying over the matter, Adeboye later learned that the woman had mysteriously passed away.
“I prayed a single prayer. I don’t know how it happened, but they brought her dead body back to Nigeria,” he concluded.
