Mohbad’s wife reveals shocking allegation against father in-law’s counsel

Olawumi Aloba, wife of late Nigerian singer, Mohbad, makes shocking allegation against her father-in-law’s attorney, Ayodele Famuyiwa demanding a DNA test for her son, Liam.
Notably, Wunmi and her father-in-law, Joseph Aloba, have been embroiled in a controversy, with him accusing her of involvement in Mohbad’s death.
In a recent Instagram post, Wunmi accused her father-in-law’s attorney of plotting to harm her son.
According to Wunmi, she has remained silent amid the controversy in 2023, due to lack of courage, citing how he used social media to attack her and her son.
Furthermore, Wunmi claimed that the purpose of a DNA test is to compel her father-in-law to lay Mohbad to rest.
Her post reads, “Ayodele Famuyiwa has threatened to take Liam out of the way.He’s my father-in-law power of attorney. Nigerians please help me beg me father-in-law to do DNA.If not anything but for the sake of Mohbad, I’ve been ready to speak since 2023. I didn’t just have the courage to speak up because of how he has used the media to attack my son and I.Liam doesn’t deserve to go through all this”.

Another headache for VDM as Mercy Chinwo files N1.1bn defamation against him

Popular gospel singer, Mercy Chinwo, has filed a N1.1 billion lawsuit against social media commentator Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan over alleged defamation.
The lawsuit, dated March 3, follows allegations made by VeryDarkMan in February, in which he accused Chinwo of diverting funds from shows without paying her former record label, owned by Ezekiel Onyedikachukwu, also known as EeZee T.
He further claimed that the singer breached her contract with the label before her exit.
Chinwo’s lawyer, Pelumi Olajengbesi, described VeryDarkMan’s remarks as “libellous, malicious, and damaging” to her reputation.
He argued that VeryDarkMan was not directly involved in the dispute between Chinwo and EeZee T but had misrepresented the matter in a way that harmed her public image.
According to Olajengbesi, VeryDarkMan shared multiple videos with his vast audience, allegedly portraying Chinwo in a “caricaturist and disdainful” manner while supporting EeZee T’s side of the dispute. He contended that these videos were intended to ridicule the singer.
In the lawsuit, Olajengbesi stated, “The Claimant avers that she has neither had any form of relationship with the Defendant nor was the Defendant involved in the issue between the Claimant and Mr. EeZee T in any material particular.
“The Claimant avers that the statements which the Defendant made in the videos he published on his Instagram page were as though the Defendant was personally involved in the issues between the Claimant and Mr. EeZee T; however, these statements were not only false but damning and injurious to the Claimant’s public image and reputation.”
Chinwo is seeking a court order compelling VeryDarkMan to delete the alleged defamatory posts from all his social media platforms. Her lawyer also demanded that VeryDarkMan issue a public retraction and an unreserved apology in two widely circulated national newspapers and across his social media platforms.
Also, Olajengbesi is asking the court to award N1 billion as general damages for defamation, N100 million as punitive and aggravated damages, N25 million as the cost of the suit, and 10% interest on the judgment sum per annum until full payment.
He also requested that VeryDarkMan publish the apology in four national dailies for 14 consecutive days.

Sad! Dolly Parton’s husband Carl Dean is dead

Carl Dean, the longtime husband of country music star, Dolly Parton, died on Monday at the age of 82.
Dean, who was famously private throughout his nearly 60-year marriage to Parton, died in Nashville, Tennessee, according to a statement she posted on social media.
Carl and I spent many wonderful years together. Words can’t do justice to the love we shared for over 60 years. Thank you for your prayers and sympathy,” the statement read.
Two years later, on May 30, 1966, the couple exchanged vows at a private ceremony in Ringgold, Georgia.
Throughout their marriage, Dean remained out of the public eye, choosing instead to focus on his asphalt-paving business in Nashville.
Though he largely stayed out of the limelight, Dean continued to influence Parton’s work, most notably inspiring her classic hit “Jolene.”
She told US media in 2008 that the song was about a bank teller who developed a crush on Dean. “She got this terrible crush on my husband,” Parton said. ”
And he just loved going to the bank because she paid him so much attention. It was kinda like a running joke between us—when I was saying, hell, you’re spending a lot of time at the bank. I don’t believe we’ve got that kind of money. So it’s really an innocent song all around, but sounds like a dreadful one.”
Parton and Dean’s relationship remained such a mystery that rumours started that he did not exist – but Parton joked about that.
“A lot of people say there’s no Carl Dean, that he’s just somebody I made up to keep other people off me,” she said to the Associated Press in 1984.
Parton and Dean had no children together.
He is survived by his siblings, Sandra and Donnie, Parton’s statement said.
