In a now-circulating resurfaced video clip, a popular Nigerian pastor, Paul Enenche, has revealed that he married his wife, Dr Becky Enenche in spite of her looks at the time he met her.

In his words, "If sight was leading me, I wouldn't marry my wife."

The Benue State-born 56-year-old cleric, who heads the Dunamis International Gospel Centre, made this utterance while ministering on the pulpit to his congregation.

He also mentioned that he and his wife told their children this, stating that "she just was anyhow" and "never cared for nothing" at the time they knew each other before marriage.

Pastor Paul Enenche attributed this to the fact that she was a medical student.

He began, "If sight was leading me, I wouldn't marry my wife. I told my children the other day and they were all laughing. And she told them herself."

He continued, "Why? Because at that time, she never cared for nothing. She just was anyhow. That is, medical student: didn't care for anything. The hair was plaited mat permanently. She wore any dress available: shapeless."

Dr Becky Enenche, who was captured sitting in front of the congregation, laughed and corroborated his account, revealing that she wore mostly A-line skirts and jump-up sleeves when they met.

Pastor Paul Enenche added that, "There were flashy people around — very flashy. They were also spiritual and flashy. But God led otherwise."

Admonishing his congregation, he said, "Not everything that looks good in the moment has a future."
