Prominent Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh has publicly expressed her solidarity with fellow actress Iyabo Ojo amidst the legal battle involving a N500 million lawsuit from singer Naira Marley.
According to reports, Naira Marley, through his lawyer, Olalekan Ojo, accused Iyabo Ojo of spreading false and defamatory content against him on social media in a legal letter sent last Thursday. The singer demanded a redress of N500 million along with a public apology from Iyabo.
In response, Iyabo Ojo filed a counterclaim of N1 billion, as confirmed by a letter from her lawyer dated December 18, 2023, addressed to Naira Marley's legal representatives. The letter contested that the singer's allegations in the lawsuit were "misleading" and had not been properly served to their client.
On her Instagram page on Tuesday, Tonto Dikeh expressed her support for Iyabo Ojo by sharing a copy of the N1 billion counterclaim. In her caption, she wrote, "We started together, and we end it together Regardless." This public declaration underscores Tonto Dikeh's solidarity with her colleague in the face of legal challenges.
