BEVERLY HILLS, May 13, (THEWILL) – Nollywood actor, Yomi Fabiyi, has responded to the legal action taken against him by his colleague, Iyabo Ojo.
THEWILL had earlier reported that Ojo in her Instagram page, had published a letter from her lawyers, asking for N100 million as payment for damages caused by Fabiyi’s “defamatory publication” during a protest held on Wednesday.
Fabiyi had staged a protest demanding the bail and release of Baba Ijesha who had been held by the police for allegedly molesting a minor.
Responding to Ojo, Fabiyi, during an Instagram live session, disclosed that the actress could not get a dime from him and Ojo could not serve him a legal letter through social media.
Fabiyi said, “Where would I get N100m from? Which house do I have to sell? If you write N100m, once they bring all the people involved in the case, they would (by themselves) reduce the money to N10m. At the end of the day, they would still not get a dime from me.
“In the sense that if I refuse to collect the letter, you would keep pursuing me to collect it from you. After then, if I so wish to respond, I would only respond to whoever has a case with me.”
