Fresh controversy has engulfed the founder of Liberation City, Pastor Chris Okafor, as a woman presented as his alleged baby mama has broken her silence in a revealing interview. The development comes after Nollywood actress Doris Ogala shared a video introducing the woman and a child she claims is the cleric's son.
The Allegations: A Promise of Marriage and a Family Introduction
In her interview, the woman made several serious claims against the popular pastor. She stated unequivocally that Pastor Chris Okafor is the father of her child, pointing to a strong physical resemblance as evidence. She further alleged that the pastor had made a significant commitment to her.
She claimed he promised to marry her in December 2021. According to her account, the process had advanced to the point where both families had conducted a formal introduction ceremony, a key step in traditional Nigerian marriage proceedings. However, she alleges he later reneged on this promise.
The woman said Pastor Okafor complained about the financial demands, stating he had only ₦200,000 and that the list of items required from him was excessive. This, she implies, was the reason he backed out of the planned union.
Claims of Church Drama and a Secret Relationship
The allegations extend beyond a broken promise. The woman, who identified herself as a former choir member in Pastor Okafor's church, claimed he was involved with another woman within the congregation while still in a relationship with her.
She named the other woman as Amaka. The alleged baby mama recounted an altercation she had with Amaka, claiming that when the conflict occurred, Pastor Okafor took Amaka's side and blamed her for the incident.
She also shared details about her living situation, alleging that the cleric rented an apartment for her. Despite this, she claimed he forbade her from holding their son's naming ceremony in that residence. In another striking claim, she said when she announced the child's birth in a WhatsApp group, Pastor Okafor was upset because the baby looked too much like him.
Background and Escalating Controversy
This interview is the latest in a series of scandals involving the pastor. Actress Doris Ogala initially ignited the current firestorm by sharing the video presenting the woman and child. Ogala had boldly stated that she would show the baby's face because no DNA test was needed due to the clear resemblance to Pastor Okafor.
This incident follows closely on the heels of other allegations. Just weeks prior, Ogala had shared photos allegedly of Pastor Okafor in his bedroom, which she said were sent to her by another of his alleged baby mamas. Furthermore, the pastor's ex-wife has also been engaged in a public dispute with him, responding to claims he made about her from the altar.
