Actress Doris Ogala has publicly accused fellow actor Benedict Johnson of fraudulent activities and backbiting in a series of posts on her Instagram account. Ogala alleges that Johnson owes her money for a land purchase that never materialized, a debt that has been outstanding for five years.
Ogala’s posts describe Johnson as “wicked” and accuse him of running a smear campaign against her and her friends, actresses Tonto Dikeh and Halima Abubakar. She expressed her frustration with friends who have betrayed her, despite her efforts to help them.
“Benedict Johnson, you see ehhh, if I open my mouth and speak all the evil you have done to me, you will tell the world if I’ve ever offended you in my life. I want my money now. It’s been five years of land fraud. I won’t take it anymore,” Ogala wrote.

Ogala detailed how Johnson has allegedly damaged her reputation by spreading lies. She lamented how often she is labeled as troublesome when she speaks out about being hurt by those she has helped.
“I’ve helped many friends who backstabbed me badly. I said I will not call anyone out again because when you try to express how you’ve been hurt, you get bullied by people on the internet. But Benedict Johnson has done me too much damage,” she stated. “They hurt you but when you react, they tag you troublesome. I’m a very sweet soul. I’ve touched the lives of almost everyone who has come across me.”
Ogala accused Johnson of deceit and slander, particularly against Tonto Dikeh and Halima Abubakar. She claimed he has been spreading falsehoods about her and her friends, damaging their reputations.
“Benedict, you said many bad things about me. You damaged my name so much. Karma is here. I will tell my story, the whole truth of how wicked and evil you have been to me. Is it Tonto? All you said about her? Benedict, I want my MONEY. It’s been five years of different stories. No land. Not even my money. This is fraud. I want my money back and I want it now. Enough is enough,” she wrote.
Doris Ogala revealed she has taken legal action, submitting a petition for fraud. She expressed her determination to recover her money and hold Johnson accountable.
“I’ve submitted a petition for fraud. We are doing this. It’s either you kill me or you return my money. But you kill me, I carry oil on my head. Ask your fellow wizards. Benedict, I’m ready this time. I want my money,” she declared. “You think you can just defraud me like that? Five years. Are you kidding? No land, no money. One thing must happen. I’m so ready. I want my money.”
In her concluding remarks, Doris Ogala threatened to provide more details and go live on social media to narrate her grievances. She accused Johnson of wanting to trend and vowed to expose his alleged misdeeds.
“Just give me my money and stay on your own. Do you know what this wizard did to me and still doing? I’m coming live. Let me just narrate one. Benedict, you want it. I will give it to you. You’ve wanted to trend. I will help you. Let’s begin,” she concluded.
The entertainment industry and fans are now awaiting Johnson’s response to Ogala’s serious allegations, highlighting ongoing issues of trust and betrayal within the entertainment community.
