Nigerian singer Emmanuel ‘Ablack’ Makuochukwu has opened up on how he married a 68-year-old American woman, Kay, years after receiving a prophecy that he would one day wed a white woman.

The 25-year-old disclosed this during an interview on the ‘Love Don’t Judge’ podcast posted on YouTube on Thursday.

He said he had no idea the woman the prophet referred to would be 43 years older than him.

Ablack, who appeared on the podcast with his wife, revealed they married on 16 October 2024.

The ‘Pain’ crooner said he met Kay, 43 years his senior, on Facebook. He added that their relationship has faced significant criticism from Nigerians, particularly netizens.

Ablack noted, “I’m 25, and I’m married to Kay, who is 43 years older than me. We met on Facebook and started texting. I went to the immigration. I paid for a visa, which is $350. I booked a flight ticket; then she came to Nigeria. I already made up my mind that this is the woman, and then I told her about a prophecy I had that a prophet said to me that I’m going to get married to a white woman, and here she is. When they gave me that prophecy, they told my dad that I’m going to get married to a white woman, that he should not worry about the woman.

“That’s how it’s meant to be. I believe in God. So, that’s why I believed that prophecy. We got married on October 16th, 2024. I never imagined I would date someone older than me. Some would say, I’m married to my grandma, she’s too old for me, and some guys on the street said I married their client. Someone said I’m her toy. Our wedding picture went viral. People thought I was Fireboy. They were calling me Fireboy. They said Fireboy got married to a sugar mummy. Even when she travelled to the States, all the bloggers in this country went to the store, and people told her they saw her online.”
