According to a report by Punch on Saturday, July 25, 2026, a Canada-based Nigerian woman, Mrs. Ezinne Nwanorue, has alleged that her husband failed to remain faithful despite the couple’s widely publicised public oath of fidelity. The allegation surfaced only days after videos of both spouses making solemn promises of commitment to each other circulated across social media, attracting significant public attention and debate.
The couple had separately shared videos in which they pledged to remain faithful throughout their marriage, invoking serious consequences if either of them broke the vow. The videos quickly went viral, with many social media users reacting to the unusual public declaration. While some praised the couple’s commitment, others questioned the wisdom of making such deeply personal promises in the public domain.
In a fresh post on her Facebook page, Mrs. Nwanorue alleged that another woman had disclosed that her husband remained involved in an extramarital relationship even after making the public declaration. She also claimed that she had endured numerous challenges during their marriage, despite acknowledging that her husband played a major role in sponsoring her relocation to Canada. According to her, she had continued to fulfil her responsibilities in the marriage while expecting the same level of commitment from her husband.
Expressing unwavering confidence in the oath they both took, she declared, “My husband must surely die if he cheats on me.” She further stated that she believed God would judge the matter fairly and that the oath was not merely symbolic but carried serious consequences for anyone who chose to violate it. Her remarks have since attracted widespread reactions online, with many expressing concern over the intensity of the statement.
The allegations have continued to fuel discussions across social media, where users have debated issues surrounding trust, fidelity, marriage, and the growing trend of couples making personal commitments publicly. While some sympathised with the woman over her claims, others argued that private marital disputes are better handled away from public scrutiny, regardless of the circumstances.
As of the time of the report, Mr. Franklin Nwanorue had not publicly responded to his wife’s latest allegations. The claims remain allegations, and no independent evidence had been presented to verify them. The incident has nevertheless continued to attract widespread attention, with many closely following developments surrounding the couple.
