Reacting to the accusation, the singer has now admitted to having an affair with her while tendering a public apology to his wife, family and fans.
The Delta State-born singer took to his Instagram page on Tuesday, January 25, 2022, where he penned the apology saying;
"I need to bring a very unfortunate incident to your attention as I am not proud of it but 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."
The music star further announced that he'll be taking a break from the ministry's work to seek restoration.
He wrote;
"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," he added.
He wrote;
"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 judgment 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," he appealed.
