Popular Nigerian musician, Oladapo Oyebanjo, also know as D’Banj, has asked Miss Seyitan Babatayo who accused him of raping her in a hotel room on December 30, 2018, to make a payment of N100m within 48 hours or face legal action.

In a pre-litigation letter signed by his lawyer, Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN) and addressed to Miss Babatayo’s lawyer, Ojoge, Omileye and Partners, dated June 15, 2020, D’banj also demanded that an apology be published in at least four national dailies.

The letter read in part, “We have been instructed to demand and we so hereby demand from you the following: That your client makes an outright apology and a total retraction of each and every false allegation made against and concerning our client.

“The said apology and retraction shall be published in four national dailies with wide circulation in Nigeria as well as on social media platforms and handles being used by your client and her hirelings.

“That your client makes a compensatory deposit of the sum of N100m only through this chambers in favor of our client to assuage his battered image.”

D’banj accused Miss Babatayo of being on a mission to destroy the reputation he had built for nearly two decades in the music industry, adding that the allegation was an insult to his wife.
