A pastor has sparked widespread controversy and public outrage after reportedly remarrying just days after the death of his wife—while her body remains in the morgue.
According to viral reports and circulating videos, the unnamed clergyman was seen exchanging traditional marriage vows with another woman in a private ceremony.
The footage shows the pastor, dressed in ceremonial attire, placing a ring on his new bride’s finger, with a small gathering of witnesses present.

What has shocked many is the timing of the ceremony.
It is alleged that the pastor’s first wife, who passed away only a few days prior, is yet to be buried.
A funeral invitation circulating online confirms preparations for her final rites are still ongoing, with her body currently held in the morgue.
The incident has ignited debate across social media platforms, with many questioning the morality, sensitivity, and ethical standing of a religious leader remarrying so swiftly—particularly while mourning rituals for his late wife have not yet been completed.
Critics have described the move as “disrespectful” and “insensitive,” calling into question the pastor’s integrity and emotional commitment to his late spouse.
Others, however, have taken a more neutral stance, arguing that personal grief and decisions around remarriage can vary widely.
As of now, the pastor involved has not released a public statement addressing the controversy.
The church community and broader public continue to express mixed emotions over the unfolding situation.
