Popular Uyo-based cleric and radio preacher, Rev. Fr. Patrick Henry Edet, ​​is now a married man.

He tied the knot with his fiancee, Inyene Akpan in Akwa Ibom on Saturday.

T​he traditional wedding held on Friday.

Edet disclosed he had fixed Saturday March 17 for his marriage.

Last year, ​he stated that the resignation marked the beginning of ‘freedom’ for his spirit and soul.

​Edet said after 11 long years, he strongly felt the need to leave, because he was feeling boxed in and it was affecting his personal relationship with God.

​His words: “From today henceforth, I cease to be a Catholic Priest, in my spirit and in my soul.

​”​I forgive those who will criticize me, I live for God. I seek freedom for my soul. As I leave, I leave smiling I am so happy that I am free.”
