Twitter User, Bolanle Cole, Narrates Dicey Story Of A Nigerian Pastor Who Is Considering A Divorce
Wonders they say never end! A Twitter user, Bolanle Cole, set other users of the app in motion for a debate to help an anonymous Nigerian pastor figure out the best line of action for him after he made a disturbing discovery about his marriage. The unnamed pastor according to the story was involved in a fatal automobile accident that claimed the lives of the other occupants of the vehicle he was in, he survived but after eleven long months at the hospital.
According to the narration, the pastor claimed that post recovery, doctors announced to him that he was sterile and would not be able to father children of hi own. He took the news in good faith and devoted himself to his Christian faith, becoming a pastor thereafter.
Years down the line, he met the woman who is now his wife but he kept mum about his inability to father a child. To his amazement, six years into their marriage, his wife delivered ‘their’ first child and went ahead to have two more.
The man in the eye of the storm said knowing what he knew, he secretly took all three children for a DNA test and his suspicions were confirmed.

Read his full story below:
MY WIFE DOES NOT KNOW THAT I KNOW. I have been married for 14years ‘we’ have 3kids(all boys) but none of them belongs to me. I know this for a fact but my wife does not know that I know. Let me explain. #AThread#
5years before I met my wife, I was involved in a car accident together with two of my friends. We were traveling from Kasoa to Madina and our car skidded off the road.
I was the only survivor of that accident, my friends died.
I spent about 11months at the hospital and that left me with a condition that says I can’t have children. I gave my life to Jesus Christ and became a committed Christian after the incident.
In summary I became a pastor in a local church in my community 5years later and met my wife in the process.I did not tell her about my condition because I was hopeful that God will heal me. 6years into our marriage my wife got pregnant and had ‘our’ first child.To be sure, I secretly went for a DNA n it was clear I wasn’t the father. I repeated the test for all 3 children and they are all not mine.I have been living with this situation for the past 8 years and I am beginning to get irritated by both the children and my wife.My wife pretends to be a good wife. She goes round preaching to young women in the church about the need to remain faithful to their partners but she has had 3 children by another man or men I don’t know.I want to confront her, but I am confused as to how to go about d situationI am just angry and irritated by everyone in my house lately. I feel like a total stranger in my own home. What should I do!?
