The ongoing public dispute between Nollywood actress Doris Ogala and the founder of Liberation City, Pastor Chris Okafor, has taken a dramatic new turn. Despite the cleric's recent public apology, Ogala has doubled down on her allegations, this time by presenting another woman who claims to be a victim.
A New Allegation and a Viral Video
In a video shared on her social media platform, Doris Ogala was seen with a woman and her young son. The actress danced with the boy in her arms while singing in pidgin, "Na your pikin be this oo, you no get another one," which translates to "This is your child, you don't have another one." The clear implication was that the child is the biological son of Pastor Chris Okafor.
Ogala addressed her followers, claiming the woman had an affair with the pastor and allegedly terminated four pregnancies before finally having the boy. The actress stated that this woman reached out to her with a story she described as "worse" than her own experience with the clergyman. Ogala promised to return with more details at a later time and boldly claimed that if the boy's face were shown clearly, there would be no need for a DNA test to establish paternity.
Background of the Feud and a Contested Apology
This latest development comes after Pastor Chris Okafor publicly apologized to Doris Ogala before his congregation. He admitted to making mistakes but maintained that not all of the actress's claims about him were true. The feud reportedly stems from an alleged past relationship between Ogala and Okafor, which the actress claims turned sour after the pastor married his new wife, Pearl.
Ogala has previously granted interviews detailing her alleged encounters with Okafor, mentioning specific locations in both her village and Lagos where they met. She has also spoken about a health scare following the pastor's alleged touches, vowing that she would not die.
Mixed Reactions from the Public
The video shared by Doris Ogala has sparked a flurry of reactions from fans and social media users, revealing a divided public opinion.
Some commentators expressed support for the alleged victim, praising her for finding the courage to speak out. One user, @baddest_bae_tch, commended the woman, saying, "Well done... I was always advising u to come forth & u been scared, I’m glad God finally gave u courage." The user added that they were ready to provide more evidence and bring forth other victims if the pastor denied the claims.
However, others were critical of both parties involved. A user named @anthonyilogu commented, "The sad truth is that all these ladies fall for these men of God because they also have their own plans, and when it doesn't work for them, they start crying foul. I am not in support of both the manipulator and the manipulated."
Another reaction, from @ichie_agu1, suggested the alleged victim was also at fault, stating, "But this lady is evil too because if they had married she would've kept it all secret." Meanwhile, some users focused on the child's appearance, with @atilola_atilade noting, "Carbon copy! No need of DNA," implying a strong physical resemblance to the pastor.
As the controversy continues to trend online, it remains a developing story that has captivated the Nigerian entertainment and religious circles. The public awaits any further evidence or statements from either Doris Ogala, the alleged new victim, or Pastor Chris Okafor himself.
