Nigerian actress Doris Ogala has reacted angrily after the founder of Grace Nation International Ministry, Chris Okafor, referred to her as a “Jezebel.”
The dispute escalated shortly after the clergyman publicly withdrew the apology he had earlier issued to the actress. Okafor had previously apologized over allegations that he abandoned Ogala to marry another woman after what she described as a long-term sexual relationship.
While explaining why he initially knelt down to ask for forgiveness, the pastor insisted the gesture was not directed at Ogala. He also denied ever meeting her face-to-face or wronging her.
According to him, “let it be known, I knelt down because of those fathers of faith and the church. Not because of any Jezebel anywhere. No, God forbid.”
Ogala quickly responded to the remark in a post on Instagram, warning that she would prove to the pastor what a “Jezebel” is capable of.
She wrote, “Na me u Call jezzibel Abi. U don’t know who jazibel be. Because I was pitying u. I will show you what jazibel Dey do.”
In a follow-up video shared on her page, the actress intensified her criticism of the cleric, dismissing his earlier apology as insufficient and insisting that he must go further.
She said, “Chris, maybe you think this thing is a joke, do you think I care about your apology? I said you will crawl and apologize to me, you think I’m joking. That one you kneel down to do at your church is not enough. I said you will crawl, you will lay down and crawl on the floor and beg me.”
Continuing, Ogala accused the pastor of contradicting himself despite previously acknowledging their relationship in legal documents.
“You call me Jezebel, I will teach you what Jezebel do. You earlier admitted in a court paper that we actually dated. I’m glad that God is actually exposing you. I want you guys to see the pastor who preach in the church. A pastor who came out and apologized. Pride got into him again and he came back to say he’s not sorry, he’s not apologetic.”
She further alleged that a man identified as Kaci had earlier claimed not to know the origin of the apology video but was now helping it circulate online.
“Shebi you boy Kaci said he did not know where that video came out but yet you’re pushing it to go viral. Do you think this person cares about anything anymore? In case you guys don’t know, nothing makes sense to me anymore,” she added.
