Patience Ozokwor is a veteran Nollywood actress popularly known as Mama G. She is well known for her role as wicked mother-in-law, wicked step mother among other wicked roles.
The actress revealed she had an encounter with Christ last January and thus become born again. She has disclosed that she nearly fell out with her daughter when she answered God’s call to go into evangelism to win souls for God.
Mama G, as she is popularly called, made the revelation while preaching at the Power House Interdenominational Worship Centre Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, during the grand finale of the church’s 40-day fasting and prayer programme.
The actress said the incident did not weigh her down or discourage her from going ahead with her assignment as she has won many souls for God.
“This is my one year in the service of God. God called me to work for him and I obeyed immediately. When I answered the call, my daughter queried me. She asked why I decided to go into evangelism and I explained to her. She misunderstood me and we had issues. “I kept working for God. I have won many souls since last year and I am happy for it,”
Mrs. Ozokwor advised teenage girls to preserve their bodies, warning that many of them may end up getting pregnant during this year’s valentine. She further said evil acts should not be associated with Valentine if at all Valentine is worthy of celebration.
“Valentine is not in the scripture and anything that is not in the Bible should be discarded”. “Who is Valentine? The one that suffered for me and you is Jesus who should be celebrated. “If the kind of love that Valentine has shown to people is for people to make love to each other without getting married, then it is against the will of God.
“People should show love to their fellow human beings on daily basis. Your neighbor is the first person that you should show love. “Everyday is love day for me and there is no special day that is meant for love. What people are doing today in the name of love is lust.”

Are we really appreciating what the lady is saying? Her point is we would show love by fornicating then, there is no point in doing this in the name of valentine which in the first please, not scriptural resulting in sinning against God.
Perfect! You have said it all.
That is the TRUTH. Points well made. Welcoming anything from this "world" is not good. As true christians, we need to always test/scrutinize such things with the Bible as the yardstick before accepting them.
Please madam,vals day has a history which is not bad. God has given us the freedom to choose between good and evil.some people take opportunuty of occassions and even holidays to exibit the evil side of them & drag others along. However, some others also do great things during this celebrations.This fornication u are talking about even happens at conventions and other christian gatherings that doesnt make the event bad. it is a matter of choice.It is for you to advocate and let the people of God know the true meaning of such days. lastly as @ktz said nollywood is not in the Bible so stop acting..lol
ABSOLUTELY SENSELESS!!!
Love is! When folks sees christ in their dreams they overdo it & end up backsliding.Playing wicked roles on the movie set isn't as well. Oh i forgot you need the money for paying bills. Those days are GONE that folks twist the bible to convince people but if you pray faithfully you too will get wisdom from above. Cut the ***barred word***!!
She obviously doesn't understand the history behind valentines day. The world has surely made it too big of a deal lately but she should read the true meaning and why it is observed. It has nothing to do with adultery and fornication. Its about showing true love even in the most difficult and dangerous times. Don't judge what you have no knowledge about. St. Valentine defied persecution to help young people bless their marriages at time that marriage had been outlawed for young men so that they could be better soldiers. Valentine was then killed for this act. St Valentine is just a representation of sympathy and love. If the world is abusing the day, like we have done to many more occasions, including Xmas and Easter, let us not lose the true meaning of the day and use our platforms to pass judgement without educating ourselves. I love Mama G but i disagree with her on this one.
Is acting (Nollywood) in the Bible?
Mama, thank you.This VAL is not scripture.The one saying , then don't brush your teeth-I wonder if she /he is a TRUE Follower of Christ.Let us focus on things that will build us spiritually not physical.
EZATALY........God bless you. People celebrate this day so passionately that I wonder how they celebrate the birth and death of Christ.
