Speaking at a news conference in Lagos on Thursday, Okafor expressed his displeasure with bloggers and online influencers, many of whom he said spread false stories without evidence or hearing his side.
“It is so sad that most of the so-called influencers we have often connived with people to come up with fabulous lies to attract traffic to their blogs.

Okafor explained that most bloggers failed to verify the allegations before reporting them.
He further explained that his ex-wife and daughter had approached a blogger requesting N80 million for school fees and upkeep abroad, despite past divorce proceedings in 2014 awarding him custody of the children.

“If, as a pastor, I can survive these lies, what happens to an average Nigerian? In the 55 years of my existence on earth, I have never been arrested for any crime or offence. It is so sad how far people can go to destroy,” Okafor added.
