“No Tithe, No Wife!” – Coach Oleju Kate Sparks Debate Over Faith-Based Marriage Standards
Media personality and relationship coach, Oleju Kate, has set the internet ablaze with her firm declaration: she won’t marry any man who isn’t actively serving in church or doesn’t believe in tithing.
In a video that’s now gone viral, Kate boldly outlined her non-negotiables for a life partner, emphasizing that spiritual service is the bare minimum.
“If you’re not serving in any department in your church, or you’re not a steward somewhere, you cannot marry me,” she declared.
“If you don’t believe in tithe as a man, I don’t believe I’m your wife.”
💬 Mixed Reactions Pour In
Unsurprisingly, social media had a field day. While some hailed her for sticking to her values, others took a jab at her perceived “selective standards”:
@DAllSeeinRetina: “With this face, she still wants to select??”
@powerchibueze: “She’s making a hidden point — she wants a born-again husband. Not wrong.”
@BigPeace6: “Person wey pastor fit de follow share 😂😂”
@tboss_guy: “Church worker doesn’t always equal God-fearing. Ask married women.”
💭 OPINION: Faith or Filtering? When Spiritual Standards Shape Romantic Choices
Coach Kate’s remarks reflect a growing trend among faith-driven women who are no longer willing to compromise on spiritual alignment in relationships. And honestly? It’s not entirely unreasonable.
In a world of moral gray areas, having shared faith, values, and purpose can serve as a foundation for peace and stability in marriage.
However, the tone and rigidity of her message struck many as exclusionary — especially in a dating scene already riddled with complexity.
The real question isn’t whether her standards are too high. It’s whether they come with the humility, grace, and emotional maturity that make marriage work — because church titles don’t guarantee godly behavior.
