Doris Ogala Calls on DSS to Investigate Pastor Chris Okafor’s Church Altar

Nollywood actress Doris Ogala has intensified her dispute with Pastor Chris Okafor, founder of the Mountain of Liberation and Miracle Ministry, by urging Nigeria’s Department of State Services (DSS) to investigate the church altar.

Speaking on the KAA Truths podcast, Ogala claimed that the altar should be examined closely, hinting at irregularities beneath it. She alleged that during the construction of the altar, a section collapsed, leading to a tragic death. According to Ogala, a blogger later noticed something unusual at the site, prompting Pastor Okafor to contact her privately about managing the situation and silencing the blogger.

Ogala said, “DSS should go to that church and open his altar. I wouldn’t say further than that. When they were building that place, that place collapsed, somebody died. Apart from somebody dying, there is a blogger that found something on the ground. This man was begging, he called me and asked me what he could do to let the blogger close his mouth.”

Her call comes amid a long-standing fallout with Pastor Okafor over an alleged unfulfilled marriage promise. The actress has previously shared videos and statements publicly challenging the pastor, making the conflict highly visible in media circles.

Opinion: A Bold Call for Accountability

Ogala’s demand for a DSS investigation highlights the growing public concern over transparency in religious institutions. While her allegations are serious, they underscore a broader issue: the need for proper oversight when claims of accidents or suspicious activity arise in places of worship.

Whether or not the DSS acts on her call, the episode will likely spark debate on accountability and safety in religious spaces. At the very least, it emphasizes that in today’s digital age, public figures can no longer quietly ignore disputes that raise legitimate safety or ethical questions.

This situation could set a precedent for how authorities handle high-profile complaints involving religious institutions in Nigeria.
