This is a piece of good news coming from Orode, daughter of former Delta State governor, Emmanuel Uduaghan.
The divorced mother of two took to Instagram today and shared a testimony of how she escaped double mastectomy.
Recall that her four-year-old marriage to Ryan crashed irretrievably in 2016.
Quite emotional in her approach, its obvious Orode, who runs a big
restaurant in Lagos is religious and leans more on God, now that her
marriage to Ryan Okpu is over.

“Testimony Tuesday: #SilentBattles I usually never write
about happenings in my life but today this might be both a blessing and a
lesson. I was due for a Double Mastectomy (Angelina Jolie style) due to
multiple reoccurring breast lumps, hence @pinkpearlfoundation. ⏩I went
to the Dr’s 2 weeks ago after running away for so long, now during my 40
days fast with @eleuthera_426 and 21days with Winners Chapel,
Masterlife class, etc my prayer point was that i’ll get there and no
single lump will be found, I held on to this with so much faith that I
already started practising what i’ll say as soon as they do the
ultrasound and find no lump. I got to the hospital met the Dr she did a
quick manual check and said this feels much better than last year I said
Yes God has done it, I got to the ultrasound room so anxious hands
shaking waiting for the miracle “the way I wanted it” she placed it on
my breast and said wow thats different, my heart dropped I said God this
was not the plan, she finished the scan and said there is a new swollen
node under your right armpit I began to cry in my heart (dramatic) they
did a quick FNA right there and said I should wait 20mins. I picked my
phone and started to message my sister, I said Yvonne what is God doing
here, I prayed, fasted, this is too much I don’t understand, I was
supposed to give a testimony, she started encouraging me, sending me
scriptures, I was really broken. Then the Holy Spirit reminded me of a
message I sent to my friends that morning, God does not always give you
answers the way you expect them, but, He will never forsake you, as the
spirit was prompting me I was still saying No, God how can this is not
fair. Result came out Dr said Orode it was negative, the first thing I
felt was “stupid” then she said We would not do the surgery again, I
said why she said the lumps are clinically better, you can keep your
breast. God said to me would you like to say something, I said “I am
Sorry” “I repent”. Sometimes God never answers us the way we want and
that makes us question Him but if you sit back and analyze you will see
He has answered and has always been in His own Way.❤OU#trust

Congrats to her.
