I endured 10 years of my son not knowing his father - Tonto Dikeh

A testimony from Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh has shed light on her journey through pain, forgiveness and restoration, following her reconciliation with her ex-husband, Olakunle Churchill.

Speaking in church, she disclosed that she faced ten years of difficulty filled with personal battles and intense public attention, including the challenge of raising her son without any relationship with his father.

She noted that the ordeal weighed on her and on people close to her because her marriage had been so public and often controversial.

The Nollywood actress told the congregation that she endured “ten years of war, loneliness, public shame, and her son not knowing his father,” labelling that chapter as isolating and painful.

She added that things changed unexpectedly through what she described as God’s intervention, saying that everything she lost over the years was restored in a single day.

“The same God who restored mine will also restore yours,” she said.

The actress further disclosed that during the first two days of a 21-day prayer programme, her ex-husband Churchill reached out to her.

“He wants to give me every document this boy needs,” she said, adding that the contact resulted in a calm and respectful reunion between them.
