Grace Ekirapa opens up on emotional strain, stigma in church after split from Pascal Tokodi
Former TV presenter Grace Ekirapa has opened up about what she describes as painful and emotionally draining treatment from some church members following her divorce from actor Pascal Tokodi.
She says individuals who once referred to her as a “blessing” shifted their attitude once news of the separation became public, with some questioning her continued role in the pulpit as a divorced woman.
In an emotional video shared on Instagram, Grace recalled being called in for a private conversation by her pastor after concerns were raised within the congregation.
“Three years ago, after news went out that I was not in my marriage anymore, I got some treatment that was very saddening. I serve in my local church, and I have served in my local church for a long time. In fact, when I was still married, I was serving, but when the news came out, unfortunately, people did not like that I was still serving,” she said.
