A woman has stirred widespread reactions online after a friend claimed her husband gave her a one-week ultimatum to recover ₦640,000 she donated to her church as a seed offering or leave their home.
According to the viral account, the woman’s husband had gone to great lengths to help her secure employment after she had been unemployed for several years. The couple work in the same ministry, although in different branches.
The woman was said to have resumed work four months ago, and staff recently received three months’ salary arrears in a single payment. Her share totalled about ₦640,000.
Husband discovers salary was donated
Sharing the story, the lady wrote, “My friend’s husband helped her secure a job after years of being unemployed. He put in a lot of effort to make sure she got the slot. She resumed 4 months ago, and recently they paid them 3 months salary at once.
Hers was about ₦640k. Her husband already knew they had been paid since he works in the same ministry, though in another branch. After a week, he noticed she didn’t mention the money, so he asked her about it.
She told him she sowed the entire ₦640k as seed in church. Now he has given her one week to get the money back from her church or leave the house.”
The post did not identify the church involved, and the claims have not been independently verified.
Story sparks debate on family finances and church giving
The account has generated intense debate across social media, with many users arguing that major financial decisions in marriage should be discussed jointly.
Others defended the woman’s right to make personal religious donations, while some questioned the wisdom of giving away an entire salary.
