A Christmas Day Lawsuit: Pastor Chris Okafor Takes Legal Action Against Verydarkman

Christmas is typically a time for celebration and joy, but for Nigerian pastor Chris Okafor, this holiday season has taken a dark turn. On Christmas Day 2025, Pastor Okafor filed a lawsuit against controversial social media personality Verydarkman (VDM). The lawsuit, which has already made waves, alleges cyberbullying, cyber harassment, defamation, and malicious impersonation. But the heart of the matter lies in the disturbing accusations that VDM has exposed — allegations so serious that they have rattled the public and forced Okafor to take immediate legal action.
In a shocking twist, Verydarkman has been accused of exposing Pastor Okafor in a deeply unsettling way: claiming that the pastor tried to “knack” (a slang term for sexual relations) his own daughter, which has ignited a firestorm of controversy. The lawsuit is not just about personal reputation but also involves serious accusations of abuse, betrayal, and criminal behavior.
The Allegations: Shocking Testimony from the Alleged Daughter
The root of this explosive situation lies in a video posted by Verydarkman earlier in December 2025. In it, he presented a chilling testimony from a woman who claims to be the daughter of Pastor Chris Okafor. The woman, identifying herself as “Precious Okafor,” gave a harrowing account of her time living with Pastor Okafor, revealing disturbing details about her relationship with him. According to her testimony, she was subjected to emotional and physical abuse, and things escalated to allegations of inappropriate behavior that no father should ever exhibit.
She describes being singled out among her siblings and treated unfairly, but the most shocking part of her testimony was when she claims Pastor Okafor made inappropriate advances towards her. The alleged daughter recounts incidents where the pastor locked her in his room, made disturbing comments about marrying her, and attempted to touch her inappropriately. These revelations, if true, are deeply troubling and have prompted widespread outrage.
Pastor Okafor’s Response: A Lawsuit to Defend His Name
In response to these allegations, Pastor Chris Okafor moved swiftly to sue Verydarkman. The lawsuit, filed on Christmas Day, accuses VDM of cyber incitement, cyber bullying, cyber harassment, and criminal defamation, claiming that the social media personality’s actions have caused irreparable harm to his reputation and personal life. Okafor’s legal team has also accused VDM of malicious impersonation, stating that his posts have contributed to spreading false, harmful information about the pastor.
While the allegations from Precious Okafor have yet to be fully verified, the weight of the claims has made this a high-profile legal case that will undoubtedly capture the public’s attention. Pastor Okafor has denied all allegations, but the damage to his reputation is already done, and this legal battle promises to dominate headlines in 2026.
The Legal Stakes: What Happens Next?
The lawsuit is just the beginning of a long and drawn-out legal process. Verydarkman has publicly stated that he will not back down and intends to fight these charges, claiming that he is simply exposing the truth. However, legal experts warn that the stakes in this case are incredibly high. If Pastor Okafor’s team can prove that the allegations against him are false, it could be a massive victory in terms of protecting his reputation. On the other hand, if the claims of abuse are substantiated, it could lead to devastating consequences for the pastor.
For Verydarkman, the consequences of defamation and spreading unverified information could result in heavy legal fines or jail time if the courts find his actions to be malicious or harmful.
The Bigger Picture: Why This Case Matters
This case goes beyond just two individuals. It represents a larger conversation about power, accountability, and the role of public figures in society. Pastor Chris Okafor, known for his influence in the Nigerian church, has built a massive following over the years. Allegations like these have the potential to undermine his entire ministry and the trust that his followers have placed in him.
On the other hand, this case also raises questions about the role of social media influencers in exposing wrongdoing. Verydarkman has built his brand on controversial content, often addressing high-profile figures and scandals. While he claims to be exposing the truth, the legal ramifications of his actions could send a message about the boundaries of free speech and the consequences of spreading unverified allegations.
The Public Reaction: Divided Opinions
As expected, the public reaction to this lawsuit has been divided. Many of Pastor Okafor’s supporters are standing by him, rejecting the allegations and defending him against what they see as a smear campaign. For them, this lawsuit is a way for Okafor to clear his name and restore his reputation.
However, others are deeply disturbed by the testimony from Precious Okafor. The idea that a father could engage in such behavior towards his own daughter has left many appalled and questioning the integrity of public figures in positions of power.
Verydarkman, who has amassed a large following due to his controversial content, is seeing mixed reactions as well. Some of his followers are praising him for exposing what they believe to be a dark truth, while others are warning that he may have gone too far by bringing private, sensitive matters into the public sphere.
A Year to Watch: 2026 and Beyond
As this legal case moves forward into 2026, it’s clear that the outcome will have significant implications not only for the individuals involved but for the larger Nigerian public. This case is emblematic of the tensions between the power of social media influencers and the protection of personal reputations, especially when serious accusations are made.
The battle in the courtroom will likely be just as intense as the public battle that has already unfolded online. As more details emerge, we can expect this case to evolve into one of the most talked-about legal battles in recent Nigerian history.
Final Thoughts: A Complex and Troubling Case
The lawsuit filed by Pastor Chris Okafor against Verydarkman has opened a Pandora’s box of allegations, legal challenges, and emotional distress. Whether Pastor Okafor is guilty or innocent remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: the truth of what happened behind closed doors is still very much in the air.
For now, all eyes will be on this case as it progresses in 2026. What happens next could shape the future of both Pastor Okafor’s ministry and the growing influence of social media personalities in the public eye.
