On Sunday, Ruth Matete lost her Nigerian husband, Beloved John but a couple of Nigerians took the opportunity to instead backlash the Kenyan singer.

Ruth and her late hubby, Pastor Beloved John tied the knot in November 2019, in a ceremony criticized by many, who branded her a ‘husband-snatcher’.

Pastor John was allegedly still married to one Juliet Aihinomo Idehen with whom they sired two children.

However, the Nigerian pastor still thanked all his haters, affirming that him and his wife – Ruth Matete – were doing good and would continue doing well through God’s blessings.

Hubby’s note

Sadly though, however inhumane one can get, there are times when compassion needs to precede cruelty and for Ruth Matete, the time is now for her critics to just take a back seat.

Instead of standing in solidarity with her, as she grieved her late husband, who has left her carrying their unborn child, some Nigerians took a swipe at the Kenyan gospel singer.

Singer, Ruth Matete

An online user lashed:

Ruth, you refused to tell John the truth. John was married here in Nigeria, blessed with two lovely kids.he abandoned his family in Nigeria and pitch a tenth with you.for you not have tell him the TRuth…God will surely asked you someday. Even after we his family members called you,send you messages on Facebook to desist from this act, you still hold on to another’s woman’s husband.

Cautioning her that a man’s unjust ways lead to destruction. Before urging her to repent and ask John’s ‘other wife’ for forgiveness.
