Nigerian singer, Innocent Idibia popularly known as 2Face Idibia has given his colleague Brymo a period of 48 hours to tender an unreserved public apology or face N1 billion defamation suit.
Brymo on Monday night alleged in a series of tweets that 2face had accused him of sleeping with his wife. He further alleged that 2baba sent thugs to beat him up.
The “Ara’ singer on Thursday, October 7, 2021 revealed that he has received a letter from the lawyers of 2face. He shared a picture of the letter on his Twitter page.
Sharing a screenshot of the letter on his Twitter page, Brymo stated, “I have received this from Innocent Idibia’s lawyer’s, or so it reads… I’ll advise they go to court, as I insist on all my tweets asserted… they are not ‘nonsense’”.
According to the letter, 2face’s lawyers said that Brymo’s “baseless and false allegations have caused unspeakable distress” to the 2face and his family.
The letter reads, “We are solicitors to Mr Innocent (2baba), hereinafter referred to as “our client” and on whose instruction we write.
Your publication on Twitter that our Client “falsely accused you of sleeping with his wife,” and that our Client “was responsible for the attack” on your person, which attack “was for supposedly bedding his Mrs or for claiming the spot of the greatest artiste alive,” amongst other similar false allegation have been brought to our Client’s notice.
“The baseless and false accusation has caused unspeakable distress to our client and his family. You have also caused estimation to be lowered in the estimation of his friends, business associates and wilder members of the public and further caused him a significant loss of business.
Our Client will give you the benefit of the doubt, perhaps you were inspired to spew such nonsense after one of such self-confessed episode of “spending days getting high and philandering.” In which case, we demand that within 48 hours of receipt of this letter, you withdraw your statements, and publish on your entire social media accounts an unreserved apology to our Client and his wife.
“Should you fail or refuse to meet our demands, we shall perfect our client’s instruction and pursue redress by seeking no less than one billionaire naira in damages against you in court.”
