“The same ex-wife and daughter have gone to a popular blogger to ask that I pay for their school fees and upkeep abroad of about 80 million Dollars. Is this not absurd and ridiculous? The same father trying to defile them? Which woman will do that?According to Dr. Chris Okafor;“All these began after my plans to remarry was leaked by our wedding planner. All hell broke loose and everyone tries to cash in on it.Suffice to point out here the peculiarity of my divorce from my ex-wife.”In our divorce proceedings in 2014, which I instituted at an Ikeja court, the reasons on the document were infidelity, violence, lack of love and the marriage was dissolved for irreconcilable differences.“At no point during the proceedings did my ex-wife mention that I was trying to defile our daughter. The court even awarded me custody of our children, and no one queried those allegations.“If, as a pastor, I can survive these lies, what happens to an average Nigerian? ”The Pastor reassured his members and Nigerians that the truth would eventually come to light, assuring that truth must prevail and offenders would not go unpunished.The 43 years old Pastor said ” I have never been arrested for any crime or offence in all my life . It is so sad how far people can go to destroy people’s integrity “
