Julius Agwu, a veteran Nigerian comedian, has said that the breakdown of his marriage to his ex-wife, Ibiere Maclayton, can be due to his reluctance to seek heavenly guidance.
According to Citi News, the stand-up comedian opened up about their marriage breakdown and battle with a brain tumour in an interview with Punch.

According to him, any marriage without God’s guidance will fail, emphasising that he did not contact God before marrying Ibiere. Julius Agwu revealed that his ex-wife was drawn to his money, but when he had health problems in the marriage, she chose to leave.
In his own words,

“I believe that any marriage without God would not last. When I married my wife, I did not even consult God. Some of us got married when there was so much money, and at that time, practically every girl wanted to be with us. But, after marriage, if anything happens to one, they would say, I don’t want this man again. I suggest that people should consult God first before getting married.”
Speaking about his rehabilitation path after his broken marriage, Julius stated that everything happens for a purpose and hinted at the prospect of marriage in the future.
He stated,

“Life is very good and enjoyable now.
When that (separation) happened, I was fighting with a lot; thinking about my sickness and my family. I thank God, because I know everything happens for a reason. When there is life, there is hope. But, a time will come when I might reconsider marriage.
“The truth is that, one’s health comes first. I have been low-key, because I had a brain tumour surgery in 2015 in the United States of America. I thank God that I am alive. Many people who had that type of surgery did not survive it. I believe God loves me because of my good heart towards everyone.”
