The Spokesperson for Afenifere Renewal Group, Yinka
Odumakin, has urged a Lagos State High Court in Ikeja
to compel the All Progressives Congress and its Lagos
Publicity Secretary, Joe Igbokwe, to pay him N1bn for
allegedly defaming him through a publication entitled,
“Biafra truth be told.”
Joined in the suit filed before Justice Kudirat Jose is a
Switzerland-based media consultant, Mallam Adekunle
Kayode and one Today digital News and Media Limited.
Odumakin claimed to have been impugned through the
said “Biafra truth be told” allegedly published by the
defendants sometime in October 2015.
According to the claimant, the defendants had in the
said publication allegedly categorised him among some
people it described as “miserable election losers who go
back to play ethnic politics and resort to blackmail,
primordial sentiments, ethnic and subterfuge when they
fail in national politics.”
