Pastor of Household of God Church, Rev. Chris Okotie, has cleared the air on last week’s sermon in which he allegedly descended heavily on his ex-wife Stephanie, purportedly describing her as Jezebel.

Okotie in a statement issued this afternoon denied directing the sermon at the embattled Stephanie.

The former Pop star in a statement entitled “The Truth Has Prevailed: Agents Of Confusion” and issued on his behalf Ladi Ayodeji, Head of Media and Communications Household of God Church, said:

“Some mischievous elements have gone on-line with false story in which Rev. Chris Okotie’s current series of teaching on King Ahab and Jezebel’s encounter with Prophet Elijah in the Bible is presented as an assault on Stephanie, his ex-wife.

“The general public is hereby informed that Rev. Okotie has not made any reference directly or indirectly to Stephanie or their relationship since their separation was announced on Sunday, July 26 2012 to the Household of God Church.

“The messages of the Pastor are recorded and available for those willing to cross-check this fact. Rev Okotie stands by his original decision not to comment on the separation regardless of what agents of confusion try to make of the matter.”

It would be recalled that several media (Transport & Business Express not included) had reported Okotie’s alleged rubbishing of Stephanie in his sermon of last Sunday, allegedly describing her as Jezebel.
