Nollywood actress Doris Ogala has dismissed the apology offered by Pastor Chris Okafor, following his recent announcement that he would temporarily step back from his pastoral duties.
The Mountain of Liberation and Miracle Ministry leader had informed church members that other ministers would oversee services throughout January while he took time off for rest, prayer, and family.
He noted that neither he nor his wife had taken a break since their wedding.
However, Ogala, who has been outspoken about her grievances, insists that the pastor’s temporary leave does not address the deeper concerns she has raised, particularly regarding the mysterious death of her younger brother. She has called on Okafor to provide clarity about the circumstances surrounding his passing.

In a video statement, Ogala said: “Many people have said that he left me and married another person, that he detained me, that he sent my nude pictures, and that he apologised, so I should let it go. It does not work like that. Chris Okafor should come and explain to me what happened to my brother. Stepping down from the church is not enough.
“I heard that he stepped down from the altar for one month and handed over to his assistant pastor, but that is not enough for me. Chris Okafor, stepping down from the altar, is not enough. You have to explain to me what happened to my brother, the role you played and how my brother was poisoned. I have all the evidence, and I am going to play everything: voice recordings and all the plots.
“You have a long battle coming. No matter what, you had no right to go that far with me. I did nothing to you. People said I should forgive, but what am I leaving behind? If I leave everything, will the money he gives me bring my brother back?
“This is just the beginning. We have not started yet, Chris. Just hold on. I will be displaying everything. You will tell me what happened to my brother. What offence did he commit? Did he have anything to do with you? Why did you hurt me this much? Stepping down from the altar is not enough for me.”
Ogala’s statement signals a determination to pursue the matter further, asserting that an apology and temporary withdrawal from pastoral duties are insufficient to address the pain and questions surrounding her brother’s death.
