Obinim's comments come amid a highly publicised marital crisis that has dominated social media and entertainment headlines in recent weeks.

The dispute first gained public attention after the preacher accused his wife of changing due to the influence of people around her. He later disclosed that he had moved out of the family residence and relocated to a luxury mansion in Trasacco while dealing with the challenges in his marriage.

Florence Obinim subsequently responded publicly, stating that if her husband wished to end the marriage, he was free to do so.

Despite his son's emotional plea and growing public interest in the matter, Bishop Obinim appears resolute in his decision to remain away from the family home as tensions within the household continue to unfold in the public eye.
