Foluke Adeboye, the wife of Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, has recounted a significant moment in her spiritual journey, revealing that she discarded her gold jewellery by tossing it into a lagoon after becoming born again.

She openly explained that, like many women, she once enjoyed fashion and had even set aside costly gold pieces for her young child.

However, everything shifted when she became a member of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), where during that period, wearing earrings was considered inappropriate.

“The moment we were born again, it was a taboo for you to have earrings. So, everything, I dropped it in the lagoon,” she shared.

She recalled how a family friend questioned her decision, suggesting she could have given the jewellery to her mother to sell instead. But she stood firm, “Whatever is not good for me is not good for my mother.”

Reflecting on her journey, she made it clear she has no regrets about her sacrifice. “I don’t miss anything, not much, because I have already sold my life,” she added.
