Iyabo Ojo is demanding N1 billion from Naira Marley for allegedly
failing to serve her a pre-action letter which she now claims was brought to
the media and public.
The counsel of Marley recently sent out a pre-action notice
demanding that the actress pay N500 million in damages for allegedly linking
the singer to the death of Mohbad.
But responding to the lawsuit, Ojo claimed Marley’s lawyer
brought the claims to the media and public “but failed to serve them to me”.
She alleged that Marley’s failure to deliver the letter to
her was a “calculated attempt to disparage my well-earned reputation”.
Ojo is also demanding the sum of N1 billion from Marley for
“misleading the public”.
“Foremost, our client would ordinarily have dismissed your
letter of 12th day of December 2023 for being outrightly inconsequential and of
no relevance, premised on your failure to transmit the correspondence either by
hand or post till this very day,” the letter which was shared on her Instagram
page reads.
“Our client views your conduct (failure to first serve a
copy of the letter of 12 December 2023 before same was released as a calculated
attempt to disparage her well-earned reputation, tarnish her jealously parded
vocal capital and advocacy, and ultimately cause her psychological trauma not
limited to incitement of the members of the public to (cyber) bully and lose
the goodwill of her clients thereby resulted in loss of patronage of her craft
and income from sales of goods and services.
“Our client shall be
