In her caption, Uche expressed gratitude to her Maker as she stated that only she knows what He has done for her.
“Only thanksgiving to God of the whole universe from this praying mum. Only I know what you have done for me, I do not take it for granted. Thank you my Baba God”.
Her video didn’t sit well with some critics who slammed her for filming her prayer session with her son.
One Yvites wrote, “How will I take you seriously Uche? Who prays and makes a video? Congratulations
One Chichi Kujore wrote, “You sha know that you are praying to your online viewers because I don’t get the essence of recording yourself praying for your baby. Like I don’t get it. You are praying and will still be wondering if your recorder is capturing everything. Where exactly do you think your heat and kind will be while doing this? On the record or solely on God. Common. Congratulations by the way

One Sasha Itota wrote, “Sow what do u want us to do now that you are praying, we should tell u thank u, welldone or send u money for praying?”.
Kemi Filani reported on Monday night that Uche Ogbodo had announced the arrival of her bundle of joy, Ifeanchukwu Xavier Ugwoegbu.
The new mother was thankful for the arrival of her baby, however stirring questions in the minds of many with her caption.
Uche Ogbodo had written about how she cannot question God or express regrets, rather she’s grateful for her son. Many commented on the fact that the actress addressed her baby as a ‘rainbow child’ which hinted that she lost one of the babies. Recall that Uche had hinted at expecting twins, but the actress announced a son instead of the expected twin boys.
Uche Ogbodo isn’t the only star who has gotten dragged for filming her prayer session.
Her colleague and ex-bff, Anita Joseph, had earned backlash after she shared a video of her and her husband in deep worship.
The wife of comedian MC Fish uploaded the video to advise her followers on what to look out for when choosing one’s potential suitor.
The video didn’t sit well with many as they dragged her for clout chasing with God’s name.
Reacting to it, Anita Joseph called out their hypocrisy in bashing for recording her prayer time with her husband, yet applauding churches who upload videos of their worship online.
