Foluke, the wife of the General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, alias Mummy GO has recalled how she discarded her expensive gold jewelry into the Lagos lagoon upon becoming a born-again Christian.
Speaking candidly, she shared that like many women, she once loved fashion and had even prepared expensive gold items for her young child.
However, everything changed after she joined The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), where wearing earrings was frowned upon at the time.
“The moment we were born-again, it was a taboo for you to have earrings. So everything, I dropped it in the lagoon,” she said.
She recalled how a family friend questioned her decision, suggesting she could have given the jewellery to her mother to sell instead.
But She stood firm, “Whatever is not good for me is not good for my mother.”
Reflecting on her journey, she made it clear she has no regrets about her sacrifice.
“I don’t miss anything, not much, because I have already sold my life,” she added.
