Ogala said Okafor first asked her to help him and his friends, but things later went wrong.
She claimed she was arrested and detained at the state CID in Owerri for two days, just four days before her brother’s burial.
She explained that the arrest stemmed from a money issue involving one of Okafor’s friends, who allegedly gave her the money as a gift.
According to her, Okafor took the money, and when she kept asking for it back, he paid her a small amount but later had her arrested for defamation.
She said,
“Chris contracted me to help him and his friends. What did he pay me back with? He arrested me 4 days to my brother’s burial and kept me in the state CID in Owerri for 2 days.”
She added:
“Because his friend gave me money and he took the money. I started asking for the money, he paid me small and got me arrested for defamation.”
Ogala admitted that what happened left her unstable and struggling emotionally. She said it took a lot of courage to speak out and share her story.
“Chris has done a lot of things to me. I am not stable. I am saying this from the bottom of my heart. It took me a lot to say all this,” she said.
She warned that she is not in a good state of mind and begged Nigerians to be careful with their words when reacting to people who are struggling.
“You might wake up tomorrow and I won’t be in this world again. I know the state of mind that I am in right now,” she added.
