Chris Okafor: Doris Ogala remains in custody as court postpones bail ruling
“This is politically motivated. More than four pastors and the government came together to keep me down here. If Chris Okafor is not afraid, why don't he stop putting me in prison…” The post Chris Okafor: Doris Ogala remains in custody as court postpones bail ruling appeared first on Premium Times Nigeria .
Doris Ogala, the Nollywood actress, appeared before a Federal High Court in Lagos to apologize for her disruptive behavior during a previous hearing. The court has reserved its ruling on her bail application until November 6, 2026. The actress faces charges of cyberstalking, cyberbullying, and attempted extortion against Pastor Chris Okafor.
During the hearing, Ogala expressed remorse and promised not to repeat her conduct. Her lawyer, Marshal Abubakar, intends to petition the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, seeking the withdrawal of the charges, which he believes stem from a private disagreement between the actress and Pastor Okafor. The court heard arguments on the bail application, with the prosecution urging stringent conditions due to Ogala's social media activities, while her lawyer argued that the dispute should have been handled through civil proceedings rather than criminal charges.
