Family Harasses Late Prophet Ajanaku's Widow, Joy Ajanaku Out Of Her Matrimonial Home

The widow of late prophet Ireti Ajanaku, the spiritual leader of Christ Victory Chapel International, Joy Ajanaku, has moved out of her matrimonial home into a rented apartment after her husband's family allegedly made life miserable for her.

The prophet who died sometime in August  is yet to be buried. But due to constant harassment from the prophet's family, the church board decided to move Joy Ajananku and her children out of her husband's Lagos home into a 3-bedroom flat in Abule Egba, Lagos.
 The family is now  insisting that Joy is not legally married to their son.

Joy and Ireti Ajanaku lived together for 7 years before finally formalizing their union with a court wedding in 2010 but the family insist that the wedding never took place...and want her removed as the man's next of kin. Family members are now fighting over his assets said to be worth millions of Naira. 

Despite having issue's her late husband's family, Joy Ajanaku is on great terms with members of the church her husband left behind. The ministry's board agreed to install her as their new leader and said the late prophet anointed her as the chosen one before his death. They also said they have a wedding certificate to prove that she was truly married to their late spiritual leader. Joy and some members of the church are getting ready to take late Ajanaku's family to court over his estate.
