Nollywood actress and politician Tonto Dikeh has stirred significant reactions online after sharing a deeply personal and emotional video of herself praying in tongues. The video, posted on December 17, 2025, was described by the star as a private moment between her and God that she felt compelled to share publicly.
A Spiritual Plea to the Public
In the intense clip, Dikeh is seen engaged in fervent prayer. She explained that while the moment was meant to be private, she felt the Spirit of the Lord prompting her to release it. The mother of one urged her followers to open their hearts to receive "a miracle, a blessing, salvation, restoration, and your healing."
She specifically called on those who can speak in tongues to join her in prayer, emphasizing that the divine utterance was for a specific soul in need of healing, deliverance, or realignment. Tonto Dikeh positioned herself as merely a messenger, stating the words were not her own but a divine release from the Holy Spirit.
Fighting for Her Destiny and Family
The actress's accompanying caption revealed a profound personal struggle. She wrote about battling for her life, destiny, child, and future generations. "When you understand the altars I once served, you'll understand the intensity of my prayer life today," she stated, alluding to a past she has moved on from.
She made a firm declaration to not allow the enemy any doorway back into her life, concluding that she would fight her battles "groaning on my knees, in the place where every battle is TRULY WON." This powerful testimony resonated deeply with many of her fans and followers.
Ex-Husband's Cryptic Post Fuels Speculation
