The Founder of the Mountain of Liberation and Miracle Ministry, Pastor Chris Okafor, has threatened legal action over claims that he is the father of a lady identified as Chidera Okafor.
In a now-viral conversation with social media commentator, VeryDarkMan, whose real name is Martins Vincent Otse, Chidera claimed that the Lagos-based cleric is her father. She alleged abandonment by the preacher.
At a press briefing, Pastor Okafor’s lawyers dismissed the claims, describing them as “damaging, misleading, and unacceptable”.
They demanded the “immediate retraction of all false, defamatory, and misleading statements published online or elsewhere concerning their client, followed by an apology in two national dailies, and a copy of the apology be sent to the appropriate authorities”.
“Cessation and desistance from further presenting or implying any familial relationship with our client,” and challenged the “impostor to avail herself and her sibling for a DNA test in any choice health facility in the absence of the prior DNA certificate.”
Pastor Okafor’s lawyers also asked for the “removal of all content that falsely associates him with claims of paternity or abandonment”.
During the conversation with VeryDarkMan, Chidera had claimed that the preacher mistreated her while she stayed with him.
Meanwhile, Pastor Okafor recently remarried, tying the knot with his heart’s desire, Pearl, at an event attended by family members, friends, and well-wishers amid a series of allegations by Nollywood actress, Doris Ogala.
