By John Ogunsemore

Actress, Tonto Dikeh has announced her reconciliation with ex-husband, Olakunle Churchill, 10 years after they publicly parted ways.

She made this known in a Facebook post on Saturday.

Tonto Dikeh said, “After ten long years of public battles, deep wounds, broken communication, bitterness, and pain, God stepped in. What looked ugly, impossible, and beyond repair has been touched by mercy. Peace has replaced chaos. Respect has returned where anger once lived. What human effort could not fix, God healed by salvation, humility, and the sincere prayers of a child.”

She hinged their reconciliation on God’s guidance and prayers, noting that “this restoration is not by might, not by wisdom, not by strength—but by the Spirit of the Lord.”

She added, “When God moves, the human mind cannot comprehend the process. He softens hearts, silences the enemy, and rewrites stories that looked finished. Every plan of darkness has failed. Stubbornness has bowed. Pride has melted. Love has found its voice again for my child.”

Tonto Dikeh expressed gratitude to Churchill “for choosing peace”.

She encouraged anyone facing marital crisis not to give up hope.

“To anyone standing where I once stood, tired, wounded, misunderstood, and believing nothing good can come out of the situation, please hear this: God has not abandoned you. Your story is not over. What He has started, He will surely perfect. Keep praying. Keep choosing love. Keep trusting God even when it hurts,” she stated.

The actress thanked her spiritual father for helping her on her spiritual journey.

She said, “To my spiritual father, Papa, thank you for grooming a God-fearing, impact-making woman out of a total mess.”

Tonto Dikeh and Churchill tied the knot in 2015 and their union was blessed with a child.

However, the marriage hit the rocks two years later.

Their breakup attracted significant media attention, with both parties frequently engaging in war of words on social media.
