In a video circulating online, Okafor was seen addressing his congregation from the pulpit, saying:
“What fought against you has turned to fight against me. Many of you have stood by you, fought for you, and fought battles on your behalf. What fought against you has turned to fight against me… I defend you to the extent that when there is something that can destroy you, I don’t let people hear it. I speak to you privately.”
He went on to stress the role of grace and mutual loyalty within the church community, adding:
“And will still pray for grace to help you, and that grace is what has been helping you… Let’s assume I’ve been like a father to you for these years. Let’s assume that I even make a mistake—if I do, is it not your duty to fight for me?”
Pastor Okafor’s emotional message comes as the church faces public scrutiny linked to allegations surrounding Doris Ogala.
Nigerians took to the comments section to suggest he was indirectly tackling his issue with the movie star.
