Popular blogger, Linda Ikeji, has blasted the law firm representing Mrs Ajibola Ajayi the daughter of former Oyo state Governor,Late Ajimobi Abiola in her fight against the N25 million awarded against her over an alleged libel content her blog published.
THECONSCIENCENG gathered that She said this on Twitter while reacting to the judgement of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja asking her to pay general and exemplary damages of N25 million to a claimant, Mrs Ajibola Ajayi, daughter of former Governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi.
She also criticised a law firm that represented Ajayi, Olaniwun Ajayi LP, for bringing the case to public knowledge on Twitter.
Her blog was also asked to publish a written apology, according to the law firm.
Linda Ikeji had reported that Ajayi described some protesting students of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology as a “generation of mannerless children”.
But the former Oyo governor’s daughter after the publication issued a press statement noting that the Instagram page quoted by Linda Ikeji, ‘conceited_csj’, was not hers.
Subsequently, Ajayi secured the services of a law firm, Olaniwun Ajayi LP, on the matter.
Linda Ikeji also boasted of hiring 100 lawyers to fight against the N25 million awarded against her.
It was learnt that in a judgement delivered on April 12, 2022, the court held that the publication by Linda Ikeji was “false and malicious”.
According to Linda, the law firm filed the same case in both Lagos and Abuja High Courts without her knowledge.
Apart from calling Olaniwun Ajayi LP’s lawyer, Ogunmuyiwa Balogun, ‘an idiot’, she also described the lawyer as “inexperienced 26 years old”.
She tweeted, “Lol. You’re such an idiot lawyer. I hear you’re an inexperienced 26 year old? How can you file in Lagos and Abuja on the same issue? And then you don’t even inform me? Hope you’re ready for appeal and supreme court? And a countersue? Tell your client to get ready!“
Also if you’re using my name to catch clout like this on social media, gloating and happy… does this mean I’m the biggest client your firm has ever sued and won against? Or is this how you announce all your victories? I should sue you for using my name like this.
“I’m supposed to be scared? I can pay 100 lawyers. So let’s go!
