Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, has reacted after the sum of N500m was demanded by Instagram dancer and influencer, Janemena, for alleged libel.
Reacting, Tonto claimed that Janemena came to beg her for an appointment so that she can explain herself and save her marriage, only for her to come up with a petition.
Taking to her verified Instagram page on Tuesday, Tonto Dikeh said,
This comes shortly after Janemena, sent a letter to Dikeh, demanding the sum of N500m for alleged libel and claiming on social media that Janemena has a sex tape.
The dancer also wrote a petition to the Office of the Inspector-General of Police demanding an investigation of criminal libel against Dikeh.
Dikeh had claimed last month that her ex-lover, Joseph Egbri aka Prince Kpokpogri, had a sex tape of Janemena who is married.
But Janemena now claims that due to Dikeh’s allegation and the trauma it caused, she suffered a miscarriage, losing her one-month pregnancy.
The claims are included in a letter signed by Janemena’s lawyers, Felix, Igelige& Associates titled, ‘Re: Libellous statements published by you on your Instagram and Facebook pages – a demand for immediate retraction of the libellous publications, tendering of unreserved apology and payment of N500,000,000.00 as exemplary damages to Mrs. Usiwo Orezimena Jane popularly known as Janemena’
It read in part,
The letter partly read,
The lawyers maintained that no such sex tape exists neither has she ever had a segxwal relationship with Kpokpogri.
They said due to Dikeh’s recklessness, Janemena had been brought to “public ridicule, odium, and opprobrium in the comity of Isoko women, her business associates, friends, members of her family, etc. The traumatic condition which your publications under reference threw Janemena into caused her miscarriage of her one month old pregnancy.”
