Infidelity: We are all sinners; save your critical comments for yourself, Sammie Okposo hits critics
Gospel artist Sammie Okposo has waved off critics over his infidelity scandal, warning them to throw the first stone if anyone was without sin, stating that “We are all sinners”.
The embattled artist took to his Instagram to defend himself saying “Jesus is the only one without sin and he only had the capacity to judge me. There is no small sin or big sin. Sin is sin.
“If you have ever committed a sin in your life you have no moral justification or capacity to judge me save your critical comments for yourself,” he added.
A few days ago Mr Okposo publicly admitted to engaging in an extramarital affair during one of his trip to the U.S., and apologised to his wife and other faith bodies affected by his action. He later deactivated his social media account.
On January 25, the singer who said he was taking a break from the ministry of the gospel so as to make peace with God and his wife, was recently on social media to declare himself “free from sin”.
