Gospel artiste Amaka Gift, who recently tied the knot, has opened up about meeting her husband. She disclosed that their connection began on Facebook at a time when she was reportedly enduring significant online criticism.

This revelation follows an earlier accusation from her alleged former fiancé and manager, Favour Ibex, who claimed Amaka had ended their relationship to be with someone else after he had supported her career for nine years.

In August 2023, Mr. Ibex detailed on Facebook how he met Amaka in her church choir. He stated they dated for three years before he started mentoring her in music in 2017. He also mentioned that they were betrothed, with blessings from both families, but kept their engagement private to safeguard her burgeoning gospel career and education.
