Monday, February 2, 2026 - A video showing how Grace Nation church pastor, Chris Okafor, was welcomed back to church by his members is creating a buzz.
Chris Okafor stepped down temporarily after actress Doris
Ogala accused him of a number of things shortly after his wedding.
Doris alleged he made her leave her marriage and started a
relationship with her, only to abandon her to marry someone else. She asked who
he was leaving her for and vowed to expose him.
She went on to allege that Chris Okafor engaged in a number
of illicit and fetish activities.
Chris Okafor apologised to her via the pulpit and stepped
down.
He returned to church today, Feb. 1, weeks after he stepped
down.
Video of his return shows church members with placard and
flowers welcoming him. On the placards, they wrote welcome messages and
expressed their joy at having him back.
"The shephard is home," one placard read.
"We love you always," another read.
Other placards had messages that read, “Welcome home daddy”
and “Your sheep await your blessings.”
A red carpet was spread on the floor in front of the
building while members in uniforms stood by the side and Chris and his wife
walked the carpet.
Chris and his new wife are then seen making a triumphant
entry into the church hall as members flank them.
Later, an officiating minister lauded Chris as he welcomed
him to the pulpit.
"We are back to do best what God ordained us to
do," Chris said as he got to the pulpit and did a synchronised dance with
his wife.
Members are seen dancing happily, rejoicing over his return.
