Nollywood actress Doris Ogala has once again taken to social media to share explosive details about the recent marriage of popular Lagos-based clergyman, Pastor Chris Okafor. In a new video posted on her Instagram page on Wednesday, December 17, 2025, Ogala broke her silence with serious allegations about the nature of the pastor's union with his new wife, Pearl.
Explosive Allegations from the Actress
Doris Ogala, who has been vocal since news of the pastor's wedding broke, made a startling claim in her latest video. She alleged that Pastor Chris Okafor did not marry Pearl willingly and that the marriage was forced upon him. According to the actress, the clergyman got Pearl pregnant, and her family subsequently insisted that he must marry her.
Ogala provided further context, revealing that Pearl's mother is reportedly one of the choir coordinators at Pastor Okafor's church, the Liberation City. She claimed that Pearl's family had threatened to expose the pastor unless he went through with the marriage. In a twist, Ogala also stated that Pearl was not the woman Pastor Okafor had allegedly been dating in 2024. She claimed the woman he was originally supposed to marry had sent her a personal clip of the pastor.
Ogala Addresses Her Motives and Critics
Facing significant backlash online for her continued commentary, Doris Ogala directly addressed her critics in the video. She stated emphatically that she was no longer interested in marrying the clergyman herself. She explained that it had taken a lot for her to speak out publicly and share what she knows.
This video follows a previous post where Ogala outlined conditions for forgiving Pastor Okafor over his alleged actions towards her while he was planning to marry someone else. Her revelations have continued to keep the pastor in the trending topics on Nigerian social media.
Mixed Reactions from Fans and Followers
The video sparked a flurry of reactions from Instagram users, with opinions sharply divided. Some users offered support to Ogala for speaking her truth. User @roseyessence commented, "Nigerians, let me hold your hand when I say this. Allow a person to speak their truth without being condescending, malicious, and insulting." Another user, @merc_y9282, wrote, "I love you Doris, keep speaking your truth, no one can shut you up."
However, others were critical of the actress's actions. User @ifeoma_nwawulu responded, "U seriously get bad character das y he dumped u and go for decent girl,,, enough of all this Big fool." Another comment from @pekiglow_skincare read, "And people still dey the Church God forbid." The controversy has also led to broader commentary on social media about the conduct of some religious figures, with user @onyinyeifu1 noting, "This man has a lot in his wardrobe hmm. Them pastor."
The marriage of Pastor Chris Okafor and Pearl became public knowledge after their engagement photos and videos went viral online, followed by a church wedding ceremony. Prior to the official white wedding photos surfacing, blogger Stella Dimoko had claimed the clergyman had performed a traditional marriage ceremony two months earlier. As the saga continues to unfold, the public awaits any response from Pastor Chris Okafor or his camp regarding Doris Ogala's latest allegations.
