Actress and evangelist Eucharia Anunobi has raised concerns about her safety, saying her life and ministry are under threat.
She shared a video on Instagram on Sunday with a caption that read, “My life is at risk ❗My Ministry is under attack ‼️ If anything happens to me, my material possessions / acquisitions and family members here in Nigeria and outside Nigeria as in physical injury / harm or death, Apostle Psalm Okpe, founder of Fresh Oil Ministry, Egbeda Lagos, Nigeria and his entire family should be held responsible ❗‼️ Note: I am ready to be taken for medical examination to ascertain if l have been having sex in almost 14 years (almost fourteen years) if there is anything like that, since l have been ordained (midwifed into Ministry) ‼️‼️”
In the video, Anunobi said she was responding to reports circulating online. “I want to use this video to give a robust reply to the various stories that have been flying all around. I still remain Apostle Dr. Eucharia Anunobi. And I want to say, your plan to distract me will not prosper,” she said.
She explained that Apostle Psalm Okpe ordained her into ministry and that she served as an associate pastor under him. According to her, “As time went by, I began to see a lot of evil and demonic things, and especially his continuous engagement in transactional ministry. This left me very uncomfortable and such a toxic environment.”
She said she requested to leave the ministry in late 2015 but alleged that Okpe continued to tell people she was still under his ministry years after she had left.
Eucharia also addressed claims attributed to Okpe, saying, “Psalm Okpe claimed that he dated me for five years and six months. I am not going to allow that to be swept under the carpet because that malicious is vile statement has left me in an emotional trauma.”
She added that the allegation reinforced what she described as long standing threats to destroy her ministry and confirmed that she has instituted legal action against Okpe for defamation.
The development followed a leaked audio conversation allegedly involving Okpe and another pastor, which contained unverified claims. Okpe later apologised, saying his comments were careless and based on hearsay.
