In a heartfelt message shared publicly, Churchill reflected on finally seeing his son again and praised everyone who played a role in the child’s upbringing.
He described the reunion as a moment of pride and peace, noting that his son has grown into a well-behaved and God-fearing young boy.
“After many years, my eyes have finally met my son. Seeing my dear son growing well, God-fearing, disciplined, and well cared for fills me with pride and peace,” Churchill said.
The businessman also commended the child’s mother, Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh, acknowledging her efforts and commitment to raising their son with love and strong values despite past challenges.
“His mother has done an incredible job raising him with love and intention. For that, I commend her greatly,” he added.
In the same message, Churchill extended appreciation to Pastor Jerry Eze, the founder of Streams of Joy International and his son’s godfather, recognising his spiritual influence and support.
“Thank you, Pastor Jerry Eze, a true servant of God and my son’s godfather. God is clearly using you in this generation. Again, what God cannot do does not exist,” he stated.
