“You are irresponsible if you are not married at 35”

The founder and General Overseer of Salvation Ministry said that anyone that is not married is not responsible. This applies to the 35-year-olds and above.

According to Daily Post, he made this statement while speaking to his congregation at the church headquarters in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.

Pastor Ibiyeomie said: “If you are still single at 35, you are an irresponsible person.”

He added that staying this long without a partner is not the will of God.

The cleric went on to advise bachelors and spinsters to pray before getting married, adding that they should look out for responsible partners.

Pastor Ibiyeomie is not the first to give marriage advice.

In April 2017, Pastor Enoch A. Adeboye warned people about meeting their partners via social media.

He said, “Let me tell you clearly Let me tell you clearly if you get a wife through the Facebook, you would lose her through the Youtube. You can quote me. Any married that is concocted through the Facebook is going to crash through the Youtube. No doubt about that.”

However, the Salvation Ministry G.O may be the first preacher to say anything age-related.

Meanwhile, Pastor Ibiyeomie’s church recently announced plans to wed 40 couples on the same day.

The announcement was made through Facebook. The post read: “Good News!!! God has done it again! 40 persons will be matching to Salvation Ministries Altar to be joined in Holy Matrimony this August 19th, 2017.

Plan to attend. The God of David Ibiyeomie will cause you to testify as you celebrate with them!”

The weddings took place on August 19, 2017.
