Wale busari02 mins

Justice Akintunde Savage of the Lagos State High Court, Ikeja, has restrained social media influencer Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), actress Doris Ogala, and Kelvin Chimaobi Emmanuel from making any references to Dr. Chris Okafor, his ministry, or church on any platform until the resolution of a pending lawsuit. The suit, filed by Dr. Okafor and marked ID/14399GCMW/2026, lists Ogala, VeryDarkMan, and Emmanuel as the first to third defendants. The ex parte application was brought under Order 43, Rules 1, 2, and 7 of the High Court of Lagos State (Civil Procedure) Rules 2019, as well as the court’s inherent powers. In his ruling, Justice Savage ordered the defendants and their associates to stop publishing or circulating any private materials related to the claimant, including chats, text messages, images, pictures, or videos. The court directed that the defendants must not mention Dr. Chris Okafor’s name, images, videos, or the name of his church, Grace Nation International (also known as Liberation City), in any form—written or spoken—on social media or other media outlets. They were further barred from releasing any content allegedly intended to blackmail or extort money from Dr. Okafor. Justice Savage also allowed for substituted service of the claimant’s legal documents, including the writ of summons, witness list, and statements on oath, through publication in a national newspaper. The matter has been adjourned to February 2, 2026, for hearing.

Pastor Chris Okafor Warns Doris Ogala and VDM to Submit Evidence to Police or Face Criminal Charges

Wale busari03 mins

Pastor Chris Okafor’s legal team has directed a firm warning to Nollywood actress Doris Ogala, social media influencer VeryDarkMan (VDM), and several bloggers, urging them to submit proof of their allegations to the Nigerian Police or risk criminal prosecution. Speaking in Lagos, Ife Ajayi, Lead Partner at Sovereignty LP, described the accusations against Pastor Okafor as “false, malicious, and part of a coordinated campaign of cyberbullying, blackmail, and public incitement.” Ajayi explained that the claims, which resurfaced online in December 2025, were initially made by Ogala and later spread by bloggers, all while denying Pastor Okafor the opportunity to respond. The legal team said the controversy began in late 2024 following a business arrangement involving Ogala and a third party. Pastor Okafor reportedly withdrew after determining the deal could not yield the intended outcome. Ogala subsequently claimed he owed her ₦45 million, which Ajayi described as unfounded. “Whenever one allegation failed to gain attention, another emerged. It was a systematic attempt to see what would stick,” he stated. Ajayi also highlighted that Ogala had previously been arrested and charged for cyberstalking, cyberbullying, and issuing threats in connection with similar incidents, a case that was settled out of court. “During that process, she never alleged rape, sexual assault, or an affair. Those claims only surfaced after the settlement was allegedly breached,” he added. Following a resurgence of online attacks, new complaints were filed with the police, resulting in Ogala’s arrest and questioning. Ajayi accused VDM and other online platforms of misusing their influence, warning: “You cannot act as accuser, investigator, prosecutor, and judge simultaneously. Allegations of rape or murder must be reported to law enforcement.” He confirmed that formal criminal complaints have been lodged against those spreading the claims and reiterated that Doris Ogala, VDM, and other bloggers must present their evidence to the police.

Wale busari02 mins

Pastor Chris Okafor, the founder of Grace Nation International, also known as Liberation City, has announced a temporary leave from his pulpit duties. The decision comes amid public scrutiny following a relationship controversy involving actress Doris Ogala, though it is unclear if the step down is directly linked to the scandal. During the church’s New Year service on Thursday, Okafor revealed that four pastors from his ministry—Pastors Sylvester, Kelvin, Oliver, and Shadrach—would lead services throughout January 2026. “We have four Sundays in January, and during these Sundays, Pastors Sylvester, Kelvin, Oliver, and Shadrach will minister and anoint you. While they are here, I will be resting. It is a time for a personal retreat with God and for my wife and me to rest. Since our wedding, we haven’t had time for rest or even a honeymoon,” he said. The controversy began after a video surfaced showing Okafor with a younger partner. Reports by DAILY POST state that several women, including actress Doris Ogala, accused him of promising marriage while engaging in sexual relationships with them. Despite the backlash, Okafor proceeded to marry his new wife in another church after Ogala reportedly threatened to interrupt the ceremony.

Doris Ogala has renewed her allegations against Pastor Chris Okafor, escalating their ongoing controversy shortly after her arrest and release. The actress made it clear that she is not intimidated by the situation and remains determined to speak openly about her experiences. Ogala claimed that following her release, the clergyman allegedly tried to persuade her to withdraw her accusations by offering her money. She alleged that the payment was made on December 23 and came in two installments within the same day. “This is the $10,000 that was given to me by Chris on Dec 23. He first gave me $5000 in the afternoon and $5000 at night. He was pleading and pleading. He wants me to tell the world that it was few pastors that sent me to fight him and I should debunk everything I said.” She further stated that she accepted the money intentionally, insisting it was meant to serve as proof that her claims were not false. “Chris, I deliberately collected the money so the world can know I am not lying. $10,000 is nothing to me. This is a screenshot of the chat we had and that is his number.” Ogala maintained that she has no intention of retracting her statements, adding that she is prepared to reveal more details as the dispute continues to play out in the public space. “Pastor Chris Okafor gave me $10,000 to come out and retract everything I said about him, claiming other pastors sent me to spoil his name.” —Doris Ogala makes another weighty allegation against Pastor Chris Okafor pic.twitter.com/fVqPZIM0yX — CHUKS 🍥 (@ChuksEricE) December 27, 2025

Doris Ogala Allegedly Arrested During Livestream As Controversy Deepens

Wale busari04 mins

Fresh details surfaced on Saturday, December 20, 2025, suggesting that actress Doris Ogala was arrested during a livestream interaction with an online host. The situation reportedly escalated while the session was still ongoing. At one point, the interviewer asked, “The police are in your house?” Ogala answered plainly, “Yes, the police are in my house.” As the livestream continued, Ogala could be heard angrily addressing someone she identified as “Charity,” accusing the person of admitting people into her residence despite earlier instructions not to do so. The interviewer then asked if the officers had presented a warrant and advised her to keep her phone active and remain connected. Comedian and ex–Big Brother Naija housemate Dee One also announced the alleged arrest on Instagram. He 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.” Efforts to reach Ogala for her side of the story were unsuccessful, as phone calls failed to connect and WhatsApp messages sent to her had not been replied to at the time of filing this report. Similar attempts to get additional information from Dee One were unsuccessful, with calls unanswered and messages yet to receive a response as of publication. In a related development, a WhatsApp message sent by this reporter to a contact obtained from a church’s social media page and saved as “Dr Chris Okafor” received a response that read, “Kindly debunk any rumour you are seeing on the internet; it is a false allegation. Thanks.” The reported arrest comes after Ogala had shared, then deleted, a post on Friday allegedly showing a man identified as Okafor in a private setting. In the accompanying caption, she accused him of dishonesty and claimed to have video evidence to support her claims. The controversy followed the cleric’s wedding to his new wife, Pearl, which reportedly took place earlier in the week. The ceremony was said to have gone ahead despite Ogala’s viral accusations of betrayal, emotional manipulation and backing out of a promised marriage after what she described as a long-term relationship. In multiple videos posted over recent days, Ogala emotionally accused Okafor of destroying her life after a relationship she said began around 2017. She alleged that she ended her previous marriage at his request and suffered emotional distress when the relationship was abruptly brought to an end.
