According to the letter, Anjorin among other things accused Iyabo Ojo of being involved in ‘threesome’ with her daughter and allegedly having a hand in the death of late singer, Ilerioluwa ‘Mohbad’ Aloba.

Anjorin also allegedly accused Ojo of being the face behind Gist Lover blog, which often calls for celebrities on Instagram.

Anjorin also allegedly called Ojo a prostitute and being in a romantic relationship with Musiliu Akinsanya [AKA Mc Oluomo] and Azeez Fashola [AKA Naira Marley].

Part of the document read, “In your numerous publications (via video contents) you misinformed your large followership with several defamatory statements to the image of our client.

“Blatantly, at the comment section of your publications, you freely aligned and corroborated the comments of your followers who readily knew your defamatory publications were attacking the person of our client with your response to their comments.

“Ridiculously , no attempt was made to deny these facts by you.

“You willingly confirmed that your publications were towards the image of our client even though you attacked and referred to her as ‘Sepeteri’.”

Ojo’s demands to Anjorin include retraction of her statements in four newspapers, and public apology, which should be done within 14 days.

She added that failure to meet the demands will result in a legal action for N1 billion damages against Lizzy Anjorin.
