Nigerian gospel artiste Sammie Okposo has taken his wife Ozioma on a vacation to Mexico.

Recall that some weeks back he had apologise to his wife, after cheating on her with another lady in the United States.

Okposo in the apology which was shared on his Instagram account lamented over the incident which he noted happened in 2021.

The Gospel singer further stated that the development has seen him step aside from ministerial work until “full restoration”.

The apology reads, “Dear Friends, I need to bring a very unfortunate incident to your attention as I am not proud of it but know that this is the right thing to do.

“On my recent trip to the USA (Late 2021), I got intimately involved with a lady, knowing that this was not appropriate as a married man and a minister of the gospel. I am ashamed and regret my actions as it has caused a lot of pain to my dear wife, Ozioma, my family and me.

“As I work in making peace with God, repenting and asking for His forgiveness, I am suspending myself from all ministry work until full restoration as this is what is proper and what I know I owe God and His people.

“To my wife, Ozioma. I am sincerely sorry I put you through this shameful and embarrassing situation. I broke your trust and disappointed you. Your forgiveness of my moral failure and poor judgement is important to me. I pray I will eventually be able to build back the trust and confidence every single day for the rest of my life

“I want to take this moment and apologize to all Fathers and Mothers of the Faith and ministers of the Gospel for my behaviour and moral failure. I won’t be here if not for your investment and belief in what God has called me to do. I sincerely apologize for this embarrassing situation.

“To all that have been a part of my ministry, followed my ministry or know me personally, I am truly sorry for disappointing you. I regret any pain or disappointment that this news of my moral failure and poor judgement may cause you and I am truly sorry for disappointing you. I humbly ask that you continue to pray for me. Sammie Okposo”

The public apology had led to most Nigerians condemning the artiste for his actions.

The alleged lady he had an affair with also told her side of the story, confirming that she was pregnant for the gospel artiste.

However, It seems  the couple have put the situation in their past and have decided to make the bond in their marriage stronger as they vacation together.
