Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, has shared a set of photos showing herself with her ex-husband and father of her son, Olakunle Churchill, and their son, King Andre.
She posted the pictures on Instagram on Tuesday to mark King Andre’s birthday, alongside a lengthy prayer asking God to protect him and keep him from harm.
“Today I stand as a parent under the authority of Your name, covering my son in the mighty blood of Jesus,” she wrote.
“On this birthday, I declare that you are marked by God, chosen, protected, and untouchable by evil. No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against you in judgment is condemned,” Dikeh added.
She continued, “Any plan spoken in secret against you is exposed and destroyed. Any trap set for you shall catch fire before you get near it.”
Dikeh also declared, “You will not die before your time. You will not be cut short. You will not be a victim of accident, violence, or betrayal.”
She added, “I seal you in divine protection, divine favour, and divine purpose. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.”
The birthday post came after Dikeh’s recent faith declarations at Streams of Joy International, the church led by Pastor Jerry Eze.
Faith journey
On Monday, she announced that she had graduated from the church’s discipleship class and said the experience had changed her.
“Last week Monday I graduated from Discipleship Class and I am not the same person who walked in,” she wrote.
“This journey with God has been the most healing, stretching, overwhelming, beautiful experience of my life,” she added.
Dikeh said the transformation also showed in her daily life.
“There are mornings I wake up already in tears not from pain, but from the weight of His presence resting on me. It’s indescribable,” she wrote.
She added, “No one can convince me there is no God. I feel Him. I hear Him.”
The actress also spoke about support she said God has brought her way.
“Watching how He sends destiny helpers, the right people at the right time to meet my every need has left me in awe. I can’t even explain it,” she wrote.
She said she had taken up a new volunteer role in church.
“Today, I am beyond proud to say I have officially joined the Temple Keepers Department full time. And my favorite place to serve? The kiddies’ washroom,” she wrote.
Dikeh also linked the decision to an instruction she said she received in October 2025.
“GO CLEAN MY HOUSE, AND I WILL CLEAN YOUR LIFE FROM THE INSIDE OUT,” she wrote.
“I said yes,” she added.
“And today… I am living that prophecy,” she wrote.
She further stated, “He is cleansing. He is restoring. He is rebuilding me from the inside out.”
“This is more than service. This is surrender. This is transformation,” she wrote.
“And I will never be the same,” she added.
The actress had earlier spoken in church about her childhood and what she described as a difficult period that led her astray for about a decade.
She said she was delivered from smoking and the influence of her “spiritual husband.”
Dikeh and Churchill divorced in 2017 after a highly publicised split that involved allegations and counter allegations and a dispute over child custody.
End to decade-long rift
In January, she said she had ended her long-running rift with Churchill.
In an Instagram post, she wrote, “After 10 long years of public battles, deep wounds, broken communication, bitterness, and pain, God stepped in. Peace has replaced chaos. Respect has returned where anger once lived.”
She added, “I am deeply grateful to the father of my child, Dr Kunle, for yielding to God’s word and choosing peace… THIS MIRACLE IS CALLED 10YEARS IN ONE DAY.. EL-ROIIII.”
Dikeh rose to fame in the late 2000s after winning the reality TV show, The Next Movie Star, and went on to feature in films such as Divine Grace (2007), Dirty Secret (2010), and Night Wedding (2010).
