Nollywood actress Doris Ogala has accused clergyman Pastor Chris Okafor of giving her $10,000 in an attempt to make her retract previous statements she had made about him.
In a video shared on her Instagram page, Ogala claimed that the cash was handed to her after several discussions, and she deliberately kept it briefly to publicly demonstrate that money had been exchanged.
She insisted the money was neither a bribe nor a payment for compromise.
“Chris, you see this money that you gave me, it will never be a transaction of anything in my life or transaction of any part of my body. I cancelled every evil altar that you are coming from. He that is in me and protecting me is greater. I deliberately collected this money to tell you that everything I have said is the truth. I’m not lying and I will never lie,” she said.
Ogala alleged that Pastor Okafor asked her to place blame on certain pastors and retract her statements, a request she refused. “This man is just mad. You can imagine this man wanted me to come and say that all the pastors or a few pastors were the ones who sent me to come and fight him. I should put it on the pastors’ head, then I will come out and debunk everything that I have said. Come on, you want me to take a fool? After all that I have said?” she added.
The actress also denied claims of drug use, clarifying that she only smokes cigarettes and challenged authorities to verify allegations of items allegedly found in her home. She said her disclosure of the money was meant to support her previous claims, not for blackmail or personal gain.
In a follow-up video, Ogala demanded that Pastor Okafor compensate her with $50,000, put her on a monthly payroll, and provide lifetime shares in his company as redress for not marrying her and sharing her private videos with friends and lawyers.
“This is $10,000, he gave me $5,000 last night after we talked and he was pleading and all that. Then he gave me $5,000 this afternoon. I’m not as cheap as you are, ten thousand dollars is nothing to me, and I’m not blackmailing you but I wanted the world to see that you actually gave me money,” she stated, adding that the video was recorded on December 23, 2025, at 5:39 pm.
Ogala’s allegations have sparked widespread discussion online, as she continues to publicly challenge the clergyman over her claims.
