Why I filed N200m defamation suit against Lilfrosh – Yhemolee
Yhemolee has filed a lawsuit against Lilfrosh over the latter’s claim of assault and threat to life.
Lilfrosh had previously accused the nightlife influencer of “bullying and slapping” him.
The singer claimed Yhemolee “threatened” him and should be held responsible “if anything bad happens” to him.
But in a letter dated November 29, Yhemolee’s lawyers described the accusations as defamatory and false.
He argued that Lilfrosh portrayed him as a “thug and lawless individual whose preoccupation is to assault”.
Yhemolee also said Lilfrosh’s accusations caused him (Yhemolee) “multiple death threats from random people”.
The nightlife promoter demanded a retraction of the statement and a public apology from the singer.
He also requested the payment of the sum of N200 million for damages.
“Our client is convinced that your publications are actuated by your malicious propensity and attention-seeking determination to bastardize his brand as an entertainer and an influencer of repute,” Yhemolee’s letter reads.
“Our client hereby denies every allegation of material fact or innuendo: that he did not and has never slapped you, that he has not threatened your life in any form.
“We hereby demand the following: that you desist forthwith from making further or fresh defamatory statements of any sort against our Client on Instagram or any other medium.
“A full and unconditional retraction of every defamatory statement, an unconditional apology both in words and by video, to be posted on your Instagram account.
“That you pay to our client the sum of two hundred million Naira (N200, 000,000) as general and aggravated damages for your defamatory statements.”

It’s shameful for Wizkid, Davido, Kizz Daniel, Tekno to fight online, says Paulo Okoye
Paulo Okoye, the showbiz promoter, has slammed Afrobeats heavyweights over their recent feud on social media.
The chaos began on Monday when Wizkid taunted Davido and Don Jazzy, referring to the latter as an “influencer” and poking fun at the former with a video clip.
The singer’s posts attracted criticism from a segment of social media users, including celebrities.
Davido retaliated, labeling Wizkid’s career as “dead”.
Amid the ongoing exchange, Kizz Daniel and Tekno also traded jabs over their collaboration on the hit song ‘Buga’.
The ‘My G’ singer dug a two-week-old tweet by Tekno where he dismissed reports of receiving N1 billion in royalties from ‘Buga’ and subtly insinuated that Kizz Daniel lacked the means to pay such an amount.
In response, the Kizz Daniel taunted Tekno, claiming he “rescued” his career with their collaboration.
On Tuesday, Okoye took to Instagram to express his disappointment with the musicians. He called their behaviour “shameful” and appealed for peace.
“This going to STOP now!!This Shameful!!GrowUpMEN!!! Please STOP. @wizkidayo @davidoYou guys bigger than This Stop. Also @kizzdaniel @teknomiles STOP STOP Let’s Love Lead,” he wrote.

Davido has claimed Wizkid “begged” him to participate in a proposed joint tour.
On Monday evening, a fight ensued between Davido and Wizkid on X after the ‘Ojuelegba’ hitmaker mocked him and Don Jazzy, the Mavin Records head honcho.
Wizkid called Don Jazzy an “influencer” while taunting Davido with a video of him on his knees, pleading and crying after a fan asked him to release new music.
The singer’s posts attracted criticism from a segment of social media users, including celebrities.
Reacting to the rift between the two music heavyweights, Tunde Ednut, the Instagram celebrity, shared a post wherein Wizkid announced the joint tour with Davido.

But in a post via his Snapchat page, Davido implied that it was Wizkid who solicited for the joint tour.
“Beggie beggie,” he wrote.
