Mixed reactions have continued to follow the wedding of popular Nigerian pastor, Chris Okafor, amid an ongoing controversy involving Nollywood actress Doris Ogala.
DAILY POST recalls that Ogala recently accused the clergyman of abandoning her to become engaged to another woman, despite allegedly promising to marry her after what she described as an eight-year intimate relationship.
Following the release of their alleged private chats, many social media users condemned Pastor Okafor for reportedly engaging in a sexual relationship with the actress, while others criticized Ogala for allowing herself to be involved.
After her reported suicide attempt, the actress vowed to disrupt the pastor’s wedding and demanded a house as compensation for what she described as emotional damage.
However, in a new development, photos from Pastor Okafor’s wedding ceremony, reportedly held on Tuesday, have surfaced and begun trending across social media platforms.
Reacting to the images, several users faulted the bride for proceeding with the marriage despite what they described as numerous red flags surrounding the pastor.
DAILY POST also reports that Pastor Chris Okafor divorced his former wife, Bessem Okafor, in 2014, following allegations of domestic abuse and assault.
Social media reactions to the wedding photos have been mixed. A user identified as evadoris420 wrote, so she went ahead to marry this man after all the red flags. Make nobody come online tomorrow dey shout justice for this.
Another commenter, Adadoby, said, so this fine girl marries this ezemmuo.

Meanwhile, Mary.maks23 wrote, she dey see all the flags and dey ignore am, chanting ‘my case is different.’ We shall see.
The wedding continues to generate widespread debate online as the controversy surrounding the pastor and the actress remains unresolved.
