Controversial actor, Uche Maduagwu has challenged popular stand-up comedian, Julius Agwu’s claims that his failure to consult God before his marriage with ex-wife, Ibiere Maclayton led to its crash.

In a recently surfaced interview, Agwu hinted his former wife may have married him primarily for his financial status at the time.

Reflecting on his past marriage and battle with a brain tumour, the veteran entertainer, emphasized the importance of seeking God’s guidance for a long-lasting union while expressing regret for not considering this aspect before his previous marriage

He shared his belief that marriages without a foundation in God are unlikely to endure.

He explained most women that agree to marriage primarily because of the man’s money would not hesitate to chicken out when the chips are down.

Reacting to Agwu’s stance on the reasons for his failed marriage, Maduagwu, however, argued initial consultation with God doesn’t guarantee a lasting union but how well couples are able to deal with issues that would arise.

The Instagram actor to buttress his point, referenced marriages of clerics that packed up despite having sought God’s will before going ahead and vice versa.

He urged Agwu to learn from his past experience and make necessary adjustments to forestall future recurrence.

He wrote: “Consulting God does not make #Marriage Last, only mutual effort of couples do. God is not a Magician, consulting him before Marriage will not prevent quarrels, disagreement, or little misunderstanding, no, it is how #couples handle these issues that determine if the union go last.

“Some people don’t even believe in God, yet, are celebrating over 50 years of #wedding Anniversaries. Dear OGA Julius, it’s unfair to Ibiere and you Na PIKINS to attribute why your IGBEYAWO no last to not allegedly consulting God.

“If it is about consultation with God, some #Pastors and Preachers Marriage no go scatter. No Marriage is Perfect, OGA Julius, learn from WETIN no make your IGBEYAWO work, if not, the same thing may reoccur in future.”

She disclosed this in a recent chat with media personality Hero Daniels.

She said: “Before I decided to embark on a health journey, I had health challenges. One of them was that I didn’t see my period for four years. And I remember going to the doctors in the UK, and they told me that there was a high possibility that I would never be able to have children. That time, my niece was two years old and I remember leaving the office thinking, ‘Oh! I will never be able to have a child.’

“I went into a state of depression. I was so depressed that I couldn’t watch kids on TV. I hated going past schools or parks because I would be reminded constantly that I may not be able to be a mother.

“So, it reached a point where I said, ‘Okay, if I can’t be a mother, I would have my niece as mine.’ And that is why, till today, my niece and I are very close because she looks at me as a second mother.”

“We need to set her up for another strike.”
