How I cheated on my wife in the US – Gospel singer Sammie Okposo confesses

Popular Nigerian gospel artist, music producer, psalmist, and CEO of Zamar Entertainment, Sammie Okposo has revealed how he cheated on his wife during his last visit to the United States in late 2021.

The widely celebrated singer took to his Instagram stories to make the shocking revelation, asking for forgiveness from his wife and the body of Christ.

Sammie Okposo also suspended himself, with immediate effect, from ministry works until further notice.

See his message below:

“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 I.

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 behavior 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 heartbroken singer has since removed his picture from his verified Instagram account. A look at his Instagram account also shows he has changed his settings from public to private.

TopNaija.ng recalls that Okposo released his first album Addicted in 2004. He has collaborated with many other artists in the gospel and soul music fields, he collaborated with popular gospel singer Marvellous Odiete on “Follow You”, has performed regularly in Africa, Europe, and North America, and curates a series of concerts called SOPP (Sammie Okposo Praise Party).

Prior to now, Sammie Okposo had been enmeshed in other sexual scandals but he always finds a way to bounce back as a talented music artist.
