Leader and founder of popular gospel drama group, Mount Zion Faith Ministry, Evangelist Mike Bamiloye is celebrating his 32nd wedding anniversary with his wife, Gloria.
Bamiloye narrated in a lengthy post on his Instagram page alongside a throwback picture of his wife how their families kicked against the marriage because he didn’t have a lucrative job.
He went on to appreciate her for embarking on the marital journey with him and for standing by him all these years.
“The man she said she would marry had no tangible job but acting of drama up and down. The families were so skeptical and would have rejected this plan; but these young boy and girl said hey wanted to marry,” he wrote.
“This girl was entering into a future which only God knew. Full time drama minister and no other job. Owing my landlord about nine months house-rent at the time I entered into full time ministry.
“It was families who rose up to support this wedding o. Because, me, I had nothing. No money, no nothing. It was my big sister who rented our first house for us, so that we would not come and be living in her house
“And it was my wife’s uncle who gave a little money to do some little things. It was my best man who bought my suit, shirt and tie. It was my wife’s aunty who sent us the shoes I wore from America.
“It was one of our ministry members who gave us the money we deposited for the wedding gown; because we had gone to three places where we wanted to rent a wedding gown for N500. It was the money we saved we used to deposit for our furniture for the living room.
“It was all the money gift we were dashed on wedding day we used to balance some debts and outstanding of the wedding.
“Fast forward to 32 years later…this girl has still remained faithful and still following the young man up and down. Still remains Submissive and Understanding.”
