Nollywood actress Adunni Ade is in an ecstatic mood as she receives N20 million in damages after winning her lawsuit against a blogger.
Refreshing your memory, a blogger published a story saying she’s one of the popular actresses who has been accused of dating Senator Dino Melaye.
Adunni had filed a lawsuit against the blog, arguing that the report placed her “in a misleading and offensive light”, violating her constitutional right to privacy under Section 37 of the Nigerian Constitution and the Nigeria Delta Protection Act, 2023.
The movie star finally emerged victorious in the case and was awarded N20 million in damages.
Taking to her Instagram page to update her fans, she stated that the judgment reaffirms that privacy matters and so does integrity. She noted that ‘justice delayed isn’t justice denied,’ as she appreciated her layers for working tirelessly on the cases.
Adunni noted how she has won two cases and has a few more to go. She admonished those running helter-skelter, avoiding court papers, to stand still and be served.
“I won my case — Adunni Ade vs. Polace Media Limited (www.naijanews.com)
A false story was published about me, but truth stood tall.
This judgment reaffirms that privacy matters — and so does integrity.
Justice delayed isn’t justice denied.
Many thanks to my Lawyer! You worked tirelessly on this case(s), Olumide Babalola LP
2 cases won, a few more to go. You who is running up and down avoiding court papers, please stand still so you can be served.
And to you, my fellow actress, who told a false story to the cutie Jules, don’t worry, very soon the world will know the kind of snake you are. Envy and bitterness live and breathe within you. You are deadly! You must have forgotten what you showed me in my room?
Anyways, thank you to the Nigerian court of law”.
Kemi Filani reported earlier this year that Adunni had filed a lawsuit following false allegations against her. The mother of two noted that people had been exploiting her name and brand for social media notoriety for too long, and now she was determined to take it seriously.
Last year, the light-skinned actress had called out an InDrive rider for absconding with her order. She revealed that the rider ended the trip before getting to her and had refused to pick up. Adunni vowed to go the crãzy route if her order wasn’t delivered.
