A former member of the House of Representatives, Mrs Abike Dabiri-Erewa, on Thursday filed a libel lawsuit against Diamond bank and The Punch Newspapers after they listed her as a debtor, and falsely accused her of owing N22 million, Channels reports.
Abike while speaking on the issue said:
“It cost me irreparable damage, it has totally embarassed me, i found it very very shocking and i just feel that the best thing to do is to seek legal redress in court.
My lawyers are demanding for N500 million compensation from Diamond Bank and from The Punch Newspaper for doing that,” she said.
