Popular Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh has declared support for her colleague, Iyabo Ojo in a fight against the N500m lawsuit from singer Naira Marley.
Truth Live News reports that Naira Marley had last Thursday in a legal letter through his lawyer, Olalekan Ojo accused actress Iyabo Ojo of disseminating false and defamatory content against him on social media.
He demanded a redress of N500 million from Iyabo Ojo with a public apology.
Responding to the suit, Iyabo filed a N1 billion counterclaim.
The actress’s lawyer in a letter dated December 18, 2023 and addressed to Naira Marley’s lawyers, said the singer’s assertions in his lawsuit were “misleading” and also weren’t served to their client.
However, reacting to this on her Instagram page on Tuesday, Tonto Dike declared support for Iyabo Ojo.
Sharing a copy of Iyabo’s N1 billion counterclaim, she wrote: “We started together, we end it together. Regardless.”
