In a dramatic turn of events, controversial Nollywood actress Doris Ogala was reportedly arrested on the evening of Saturday, December 20, 2025. The incident occurred while she was actively participating in a livestream interview, bringing a very public and abrupt end to the broadcast.
Live Stream Interrupted by Police
The arrest unfolded in real-time for online viewers. During the session with an online personality, Ogala confirmed that police officers had entered her residence. The interviewer was heard asking, "The police are in your house?" to which the actress replied, "Yes, the police are in my house." The stream captured Ogala reprimanding someone named Charity for allowing the officers access despite her warnings.
The interviewer urged Ogala to keep her phone on and inquired if the officers presented a valid warrant. However, the live feed cut off shortly after, leaving the audience in suspense. The development was later confirmed by comedian and former Big Brother Naija housemate, Dee One, who posted about the arrest on his Instagram page.
Dee One wrote: "Doris Ogala has just been arrested. I tried to warn her; the allegations did not add up. Now she will have to defend her story in court. Everywhere good, my people."
The Backstory: A N1 Billion Feud with a Cleric
This arrest caps a week of intense allegations made by Ogala against Pastor Chris Okafor, the founder of Grace Nation Ministry. The actress has claimed they were in a long-term romantic relationship since 2017 and that she ended her previous marriage at his request.
The feud escalated significantly following Pastor Okafor's recent wedding to his new bride, Pearl. In response, Ogala took legal action, filing a formal demand for N1 billion in damages for what she termed a "breach of promise to marry." She had also threatened to release compromising video evidence, following a now-deleted post where she shared a private photograph.
Public Reaction and Broader Allegations
The news of the arrest sparked immediate reactions on social media. One user, @DeshinaofEkiti, noted the irony: "Na she talk say make DSS investigate the pastor but na she police con carry. True true no be who first call police dey win case." Another, @Baruch_Bashan, saw it as a positive step, urging police to also "investigate that church Altar where Pastor Chris Okafor buried something."
This reference points to even graver allegations made by Ogala. In a previous interview on the KAA Truths podcast, she called on Nigeria's Department of State Services (DSS) to dig up the altar at Okafor's Mountain of Liberation and Miracle Ministry. She alleged that someone died during the church's construction and hinted that something was buried there, a claim the pastor has strongly denied.
The situation remains fluid, with the police yet to issue an official statement on the reasons for Ogala's detention. This public drama intertwines personal scandal, serious legal claims, and spiritual controversy, ensuring it remains a major talking point in Nigeria's entertainment and social circles.
