I Divorced a Man, Not God: Rev. Charlotte Oduro Speaks Out After Divorce from Apostle Solomon Oduro

 

In a bold and emotionally candid declaration, renowned Ghanaian marriage counsellor, Rev. Charlotte Oduro has addressed the public for the first time following her divorce from Apostle Solomon Oduro putting to rest months of speculation and public commentary. With characteristic strength and spiritual conviction, she stated: I divorced a man not God, drawing a clear line between her personal life and her enduring relationship with her Creator.

The couple, once admired for their spiritual leadership and seemingly unshakable bond, confirmed their separation after a 16-year marriage. According to Apostle Oduro, the decision was made due to irreconcilable differences that spanned several years. Rev. Oduro revealed that they had lived separately for three years, had not shared a bedroom in two years, and had been without sexual intimacy for seven  painting a picture of a deeply strained relationship behind closed doors.

Despite her years of counselling thousands of couples on love, communication and endurance in marriage, Rev. Oduro has not been spared criticism. Some questioned how a woman revered for her teachings on marital unity could experience such a painful end to her own marriage. But she responded with grace and truth: “I didn’t die, I’m alive, reminding the public that no one is immune to personal trials, not even those who are tasked with guiding others through them.

Rather than retreat from public view, Rev. Oduro has embraced a new chapter. Her recent transformation  from a traditionally modest wardrobe to a more contemporary, youthful style has sparked widespread conversation online. While some see it as a controversial shift, many have hailed it as a sign of personal liberation, healing, and empowerment. For Rev. Oduro, it appears to be a visible manifestation of her inner rebirth.

“Divorce is not the end, she asserted. I may have lost a marriage, but I haven’t lost my purpose. My calling still stands.

This poignant message has resonated deeply with many especially women who often feel silenced by the shame or stigma associated with failed relationships. Rev. Oduro’s honesty is paving the way for a healthier, more compassionate conversation around love, loss, and resilience.

Despite the pain she continues to fulfil her mission  counselling couples, mentoring women and preaching faith and hope. Her story is now more than just advice it’s lived experience.

In a society that often places immense pressure on women to maintain appearances, Rev. Charlotte Oduro’s transparency is not only refreshing but revolutionary. She remains a pillar of strength, not because she has never fallen, but because she has risen with grace, faith, and purpose.

As she turns the page on this difficult chapter, one thing remains clear: Rev. Charlotte Oduro’s faith is unshaken, her voice is unwavering, and her mission to uplift others continues with renewed fire.
