A district court sitting in Abuja has retrained Kayode Dotun, the on-air-personality (OAP) fondly called Do2dtun, from allegedly making defamatory comments about D’banj.
Emmanuel Iyanna, the district judge, gave the order in a ruling with motion no: MN/218/2023 on Wednesday.
D’banj had sought the injunction order through Toheeb Lawal, his legal representative, against Do2dtun from making “malicious and defamatory posts against him on social media”.
Granting the application, the judge ruled: “an order restraining the defendant (Do2dtun) either by himself, servants, privies, cohorts, representatives or any person deriving authority from him from further making any malicious, intimidating or defamatory post directing at the complainant (D’banj) on any social media platform (X, Instagram, etc.) or news media pending the hearing and determination of the substantive case”.
The court also ordered the deputy inspector of police of the force intelligence bureau to probe a criminal complaint brought by D’banj against Do2dtun within two weeks and report back.
Dotun recently resumed his child custody battle with Omotayo, his ex-wife who happens to be a sister to the singer.
The media personality claimed he is being denied access to his children.
During his week-long rant, Dotun issued Omotayo’s family — including D’banj — a 24-hour ultimatum to allow “me access to my kids”.
“Hello @iamdbanj I give u & your sister 24 hours to tell me how u intend to grant me access to my kids. If you don’t I’ll put the numbers of every of your family members out. They will call you on my behalf. Shey o ni pe o ya werey Abi… Ole oshi.. atole! alatenuje! Onidoti!” he had written.
He also accused D’banj of being an instrument of discord in his child custody case with Omotayo.

Adetshina addresses identity theft claim, says she earned Miss Universe Nigeria win

Chidimma Adetshina, the recently crowned Miss Universe Nigeria, has finally addressed the claims of identity theft in South Africa.
Chidimma was born in 2001 in Soweto at Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital. Her father is of Igbo descent while some reports said her mother is a Mozambican who had become a naturalized citizen of South Africa.
The model sparked controversy during this year’s Miss South Africa pageant due to her nationality.
This led to a surge of criticism on social media, particularly from South Africans. Chidimma would later withdraw from the Miss South Africa contest.
Her withdrawal came after the Department of Home Affairs (DHA) for South Africa alleged that preliminary evidence suggests Chidimma’s mother may have committed fraud and identity theft.
Speaking on the matter in an Arise TV interview, the 23-year-old denied any wrongdoing, saying “I didn’t steal anyone’s identity”.
The young woman, however, declined to elaborate, citing ongoing investigations and concerns about potential contradictions.
“I did not steal anyone’s identity. Obviously I am still waiting on the conclusion of the whole case and matter, then moving forward, I will know exactly what to say,” she said.
“Because I feel like now if I say something and something comes out tomorrow, it could be like but you said this then something else. I am just avoiding all those two things contradicting one another.”
On August 14, the model accepted the invitation to participate in this year’s Miss Universe Nigeria pageant. She was recently crowned winner of the pageant.
Speaking on her victory, Chidimma also dismissed insinuations that she won the Miss Universe Nigeria pageant “out of pity”.
She argued that she went through the same rigorous experience as all contestants, adding that “I worked hard to earn my title”.
“A lot of people felt like it was a pity win and I do not think so. I feel like I really worked hard. Coming from the SA journey, we spent 10 weeks in camp,” she said.
“It might have been a slight difference but I feel like, if we have to look at the journey that we have all been through, I feel like I had the same experience that they did.”
