Variable on Main Timeline-If Statement?

[Beocro]

Okay, so in my main timeline, I have this:

gameover = false
if(follower.hitTest(target))
{
	

	gameover=true
gotoAndStop(2);
clearInterval(NormEnemy);
clearInterval(GreenEnemy);
clearInterval(PacEnemy);
clearInterval(IshEnemy);
clearInterval(RainbowEnemy);
clearInterval(DylEnemy);
clearInterval(lolEnemy);
}

if (gameover=false)
{DestroyEnemy=setInterval(KillEnemy, 10000);
function KillEnemy () {
removeMovieClip(follower)
}
} else if (gameover=true)
{{FastKillEnemy=setInterval(FKillEnemy, 1);
function FKillEnemy () {
removeMovieClip(follower)}}}

But for some reason, neither of the functions activate. They worked fine until I added the if statements. Does anybody know what might be causing this? Thanks in advance.
