Even those who guide others through love and relationships are not immune to heartbreak.
In a surprising turn of events that has left many of her followers stunned, popular relationship counsellor and founder of the SPAMHEM Foundation, Counsellor Chidinma Praise, has announced that her engagement and planned wedding have been called off.
Who Is Chidinma Praise?
For those who may not be familiar with her, Chidinma Praise is a well-known relationship counsellor who has built a reputation for speaking at churches and various religious events across the country. As the founder of the SPAMHEM Foundation, she has dedicated a significant portion of her life to guiding others through the complexities of love, relationships, and marriage.
The Announcement
In what must have been an incredibly difficult decision to make public, Chidinma Praise came forward to announce that her engagement — and the wedding that had been in the pipeline — has been cancelled. For someone whose life’s work revolves around helping others build and sustain healthy relationships, this news carries a particularly poignant weight.
Nigerians React
As expected, news of the cancellation has sparked widespread conversation online and within Christian communities where Chidinma is well known. Many followers have expressed sympathy and support, while others have been left with questions.
It is a reminder, as painful as it is real, that relationship experts, pastors, and counsellors are also human beings navigating the same emotional terrain as the rest of us. No certificate or title shields anyone from the unpredictable nature of matters of the heart.
A Word for Those Going Through Similar Situations
If there is anything her story teaches us, it is that calling off a wedding, while socially uncomfortable in Nigerian society, is sometimes the wiser and braver choice. The pressure to “just go ahead” with a wedding to avoid shame or societal judgment has led many Nigerians into marriages that caused far more pain than a broken engagement ever would.
We wish Counsellor Chidinma Praise strength, healing, and clarity during this period, and we hope she continues the important work she does for others — because her experience, however painful, only makes her more equipped to understand the people she serves.
