A renowned lawyer and human rights activist, Festus Keyamo has threatened to sue a Nigerian blogger Kemi Ashefon who accused top Nollywood actor Daniel K Daniel of being in a sizzling romance with the widow of late broadcaster, Charles Bruce Chukwuma popularly known as Chaz B.
The rumoured which broke the internet few days back got the attention of Chaz B’s widow, Roseline Chinyere Chukwuma who immediately got in touch with her lawyer to take legal actions against the blogger.
Roseline’s lawyer, Festus Keyamo’s in a letter to the blogger titled “Defamatory Story Against Chaz B’s Widow Untrue.” Our attention has been drawn to a complete false and defamatory story against our client, Mrs. Roseline Chinyere Chukuma, widow of the late famous broadcaster, Chaz B, written and blogged by Kemi Ashefon.
The story has since gone viral on the internet with unimaginable number of readers passing negative and derogatory remarks about the person of our client.
We are constrained to inform the public that the said story is malicious, false, unethical of media practice and disparaging to the personality and integrity of Mrs Chukuma.
Hence we have decided to seek redress in the court of law and to make such infamous unethical practices unattractive by making the originator of the story face commensurate legal consequences of her action.
This, we believe will serve as deterrent to other blackmailers in the media space in Nigeria.
The story has alleged a romantic affair between our client and a fast-rising Nollywood star, Daniel Kanayo Daniel, aka DKD, in a very derogatory manner. It also insinuates a simmering rancour between our client and her in-laws over the estate of her late husband, Kenyamo wrote.
