You don’t need to explain yourself to anybody. Life is not in the hands of people—it’s in the hands of God.
Oduro also addressed those who ridicule her continued ministry following the separation.
If I’m preaching and I hear women giggling at the back, I will shut you up within a minute. That’s who I am. You won’t distract me.
Speaking with emotion and resolve, she expressed deep empathy for women burdened by the shame and stigma often associated with divorce.
Sister, I see tears in your eyes. You’ve allowed the voices of men to cripple you and sink into your heart—all because you are divorced. You divorced a man, not God. So what is wrong with you?
