Nollywood actress Doris Ogala has made a passionate public appeal to popular Lagos-based cleric, Pastor Chris Okafor, concerning a young boy alleged to be his son. In an emotional video shared on her Instagram, Ogala highlighted the plight of the child and his mother, whom she claims the pastor has abandoned.
A Heartbreaking Public Plea
In the video posted on December 31, 2025, Doris Ogala introduced the woman and the boy to her followers. She narrated a heartbreaking tale of neglect and financial hardship. Ogala revealed that the alleged baby mama sometimes struggles to afford basic necessities like a N50 biscuit for her child, a situation that has led to mockery from others.
The actress, visibly moved, stated that while she has her own personal issues with Pastor Okafor, she chose to set them aside to focus on the child's welfare. "I am not concerned about the relationship between the alleged baby mama and Pastor Chris Okafor," she said, but strongly appealed to the pastor to come to the boy's aid and agree to a DNA test to confirm paternity.
The Alleged Baby Mama's Story
According to Ogala's account, the woman involved shared details of how she met the founder of the Mountain of Liberation and Miracle Ministry. She explained that their families had even carried out a formal introductory ceremony, suggesting a serious relationship that promised marriage.
Ogala further disclosed her own efforts to mediate privately. She claimed to have contacted one of the pastor's friends, who promised to help, but the matter remained unresolved. The issue has dragged on for some time, with Ogala initially advising the woman against going public, advice which was ultimately not followed.
Social Media Erupts in Reaction
The video quickly ignited a firestorm on social media, with fans and followers dissecting the story and the boy's striking resemblance to the cleric. The comments section became a forum for outrage and debate.
Many users condemned the pastor, with comments like "@emidonbenzy" writing: "Omo that man is so wicked ohh , even if you don't like the woman pls take care of your son haba na u sabi do but you no sabi train picken." Others focused on the child's likeness, with "@bazuayegift" reacting: "If God want to punish such men the kids come out looking exactly like them."
The controversy also sparked broader conversations about responsibility, with user "@believe_believe96" referencing a common Nigerian parental warning: "My mom always advise us men saying 'Never let your Gbola marry for you' I don see the meaning now." Some, like "@success_dima", questioned the woman's choices: "Put why she go sleep with her pastor? all this choir mistress self."
This incident adds to the ongoing public saga involving Pastor Chris Okafor, following recent allegations and counter-allegations with his ex-wife. It remains to be seen if the cleric will respond publicly to this latest appeal from Doris Ogala and the claims of the alleged baby mama.
