Member of Dammy's cook-a-thon team counters her claims

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a member of Dammy's cooking marathon team had rubbished her claims against Pastor Adegoke.

In an interview with Legit.ng, a source who was part of the controversial cooking marathon said the chef told lies against Adegoke, noting that she left the church in June.

The source, Ajewole Samuel, insisted that there was no evidence to show that anyone was after Chef Dammy's life.

Legit.ng asked if the problem between Chef Dammy and the pastor was connected to money realised during the cookathon. The source said all the money went into her account.
