Ogala regained her freedom on Monday, following her arrest on Saturday over allegations involving Chris Okafor, founder of Grace Nation Ministry.

The actress confirmed her release in a post shared on her Instagram page, expressing gratitude to human rights activist and former presidential candidate Omoyele Sowore, and social media influencer VeryDarkMan for their intervention.

In her post, Ogala wrote, “Thank you, Sowore. Thanks so much to my ratel king.”

Her arrest came amid weeks of public controversy following a video showing Okafor’s engagement to another woman.

Ogala had previously claimed she had been in a romantic relationship with the cleric since 2017, alleging that she left her previous marriage at his insistence. She accused him of betrayal after years of intimacy and assurances of marriage.

The dispute escalated when Ogala demanded that Okafor either marry her or financially compensate her with a house.

Despite her allegations, images from Okafor’s white wedding and traditional marriage ceremonies surfaced online last Wednesday.

Tensions intensified further last Friday after Ogala posted, and later deleted, an image purportedly showing Okafor topless in a private bedroom setting.
