The emotional moment was witnessed by church members, who described how the pastor spent several minutes struggling to speak before revealing the news.
He explained that, despite the temptation to abort the baby to avoid public shame, he chose to announce the pregnancy to “shame the devil.”

A church member shared the account on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, via the handle @Adasu_d_gr8, praising the congregation’s response and noting that the moment demonstrated a renewed sense of love and unity within the church.
