Mrs. Regina Akume, wife of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Senator George Akume, has publicly reaffirmed that she remains married to the senior government official, addressing growing public attention surrounding his family life. Her remarks, made during a New Year church service, have drawn national interest because of Senator Akume’s position at the heart of Nigeria’s federal administration.
Speaking before congregants in a video that has since circulated widely, Mrs. Akume declared her continued commitment to her husband and dismissed external commentary questioning her marital status. “I want to tell the world that I still love Mr. George (Akume). He is my husband,” she said.
She went on to identify members of her family seated in the church, underscoring what she described as the unity of her household. According to her, public discussions and social commentary have not altered her position. “That is my man and that is my husband. I have no other husband but him. I do not care what the world says,” she added, prompting applause from worshippers.
Beyond family matters, Mrs. Akume also spoke about a recent health challenge, describing it as a difficult period in her life. She told the congregation that she had recovered fully, attributing her restoration to divine intervention. “I thank God for granting me healing and making me healthy again,” she said.
Reaffirming her Christian faith, she described God as supreme and unmatched in power, stressing the centrality of redemption in Christian belief. “He is the Almighty Father. There is none like Him, and there is no power that is above His power,” she said, adding that no sacrifice exceeds that of Jesus Christ on the cross.
Her public declaration comes amid sustained public interest following reports that Senator Akume recently married another wife, a development that has generated debate across political, religious, and social spaces. Senator Akume, a former governor of Benue State and one of the most prominent figures in the current federal government, has not issued a detailed public statement directly addressing the broader discussions.
