Dora Chichah, the woman who married a Catholic priest from the Diocese of Warri, Delta State, Rev Fr. Daniel Okanatotor Oghenerukevwe, has revealed how she met her husband.
Recall that the Catholic Diocese of Warri suspended Fr. Daniel Oghenerukevwe for getting married in the United States without completing the formal process of being released from his priestly vows.
The Diocese said that Oghenerukevwe had requested on November 30, 2024, to be released from all canonical obligations associated with Holy Orders.
However, the Diocese said it reached out to him, “asking for the required documents to begin the process, but the priest went on to marry without completing the procedure.”
Fr. Daniel Okanatotor Oghenerukevwe got married to Dora Chichah in Dallas, Texas, and photos from the ceremony have since gone viral.
Speaking during a live testimony session at Pastor Jerry Eze’s Streams of Joy International Church in Dallas, Chichah shared her journey.
Dora introduced herself as a single mother of three who had prayed for a husband for over nine years.
“What God cannot do does not exist. We dey pray, e dey show. My name is Dora, and I’m giving my testimony from Streams of Joy, Dallas.
“Indeed, the lord has shown me mercy. Since 2020, I have been on this altar, believing in God for a life partner. I’m a single mother of three and I have been believing God for over nine years for a divine settlement. I kept on praying. I said, God settle me,” she stated.
Dora added, “In July 2021, Pastor Jerry said the Lord has heard you; he said the Lord allowed all that has happened to take you to your wealthy place. He is your salvation. In your waiting time, He will build your character.
“I kept praying. Anytime Pastor Jerry says women in their 30s, women in their 40s, receive your husband. I would dance and I would pray and I was believing God.”
“In 2024, I heard God clearly to relocate from where I was to Dallas, Texas.”
Dora said she reconnected with Daniel, someone she knew growing up in the same area, and they quickly exchanged contact details.
“He told me stories about how he has been praying for four years for discernment in his vocation. And in my own case, I had been praying too. He said he had been fasting for three months, asking God to give him the woman for him,” Dora revealed.
They got into a brief relationship which quickly led to marriage.
“In three months, we had gone through the marriage class. Within three months, we did the traditional wedding; we did the court. And the white wedding in Streams of Joy, Dallas,” she said.
The testimony video included pictures of Dora and Daniel on their wedding day.
Meanwhile, Mary Okanatotor, a woman who says she’s Daniel’s biological sister, defended the marriage, stating it was the best decision for her brother because he was lonely (read here).
“He did not do a secret marriage as he wrote to the Diocese to inform them of his decision,” she said in a social media post.
