Mayorkun slams N1bn lawsuit on Nickie Dabarbie over ‘ritual’ allegation

Ace Nigerian singer, Adewale Mayowa otherwise known as Mayorkun has sued TikTok influencer, Nickie Dabarbie over alleged defamatory and libelous statements.

The entertainer is demanding N1 billion damages from Dabarbie for falsely accusing him of being a ritualist and trying to use her for ritual purposes.

It may be recalled that in a viral post, she claimed that Mayorkun and his friend, Skiibii invited her for a boat cruise and subsequently tried to use her for occult practices.

But Mayorkun filed a suit through his lawyers and in the letter, he is requesting that Nickie Dabarbie desist from making disparaging remarks about him and refute all the accusations.

The music star wants the beautiful video vixen to take down the offensive publications against him on all social media platforms within 24 hours.

Dabarbie is also expected to N1 billion compensation to him for all the emotional distress, endorsements he lost, and legal fees incurred.

The document reads in part: “Our Client remains an individual of impeccable character and a strong moral compass and is committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in the society. It is glaring that our client is extremely unpleased with these distasteful accusations as they are malicious accusations deliberately made to publicly tarnish our client’s image, cause significant harm to his reputation, and inflict irreparable damage to their personal and professional life.

This senseless episode has left a sour taste in our client’s mouth as he is a simple, honest, easy-going, and reputable Music Artiste who is now forced to clear his name and seek redress under Law.

In compliance with the High Court of Lagos Civil Procedure Rules 2019 which mandates that parties attempt to amicably resolve a matter before approaching the court and our Client’s unequivocal instructions, we hereby demand that you immediately adhere to the following conjunctively:

That you take down the offensive publication on all your social media accounts within 24 (Twenty-Four) hours of receipt of this letter.

That you will accompany the retraction of the offensive publication with a video and written apology to our client through the same platform(s) employed to tarnish his image including the publication of the written apology in (Two) 2 National Newspapers.

That you will henceforth desist from engaging in any acts written and/or verbal which are defamatory, slanderous, and/or libelous towards our client.

That you pay our client a sum of not less than (One) 1 Billion Naira (N1,000,000,000) as damages for all the emotional trauma, loss of endorsements, and cost of engaging Legal Counsel.”
