I bet the viagra helped

LAGOS (AFP) - Samuel Akinbode Sadela, Nigeria's oldest preacher at 107, said he derived his strength from God after marrying a 30-year woman.

"The Lord is my strength. I am very strong and energetic," they quoted him as saying after the wedding in Lagos.

Sadela, founder of Gospel Apostolic Church, has been on the pulpit for 75 years.

Sadela first got married in 1934, and the marriage lasted for 21 years, but none of the couple's seven children lived beyond their infancy.

A second marriage, consummated in 1965, was blessed with four children, but only two survived. His second wife died in 2001.

And then he met the new woman of his life, 77 years his junior.

The marriage with Christiana Sadela is "a fulfilment of the scripture and worthy of thanksgiving and appreciation to God", his church said in a statement.

"Nothing is impossible for God," it said.

I'm certain it was a 'spiritual 'union!

One of mind and soul...
And if this woman dies before him... I think that they should look at him as the reason...
