Actress Dakore Akande has issued a cease and desist notice to the notorious Instagram blog “Gistloversblog” following a post linking her romantically with Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
According to the notice, Akande’s legal representatives claimed that the blog published “suggestive and libellous content” featuring Akande’s image, which could “tarnish our Client’s reputation.”
The article, which has now gone viral, links Akande to Akpabio, despite her being “happily married to Mr Akande for many years” and having “never met the said Senate President in person or otherwise.”
Akande’s lawyers are demanding that the offending tweet be removed immediately, as well as an end to “any further defamatory statements” about the actress.
Her legal representation stated that failure to comply within 24 hours may result in “aggressive legal actions,” such as seeking damages, injunctive relief, and legal expenses.
The notice cites Section 375 of the Criminal Code Act, implying that the post could be considered defamation.
