APC's VP candidate, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo has
commenced legal actions against Femi Fani-Kayode over
the statement he made last weekend that he (Osinbajo)
swore an oath with former Lagos State Governor, Bola
Ahmed Tinubu, to step down six month after election.
Osinbajo, through his lawyer, Femi Falana is seeking
N2billion damages for the alleged defamatory statement,
he is also demanding a retraction of the statement and
an apology which must be aired on four television
stations and published in four national newspapers
"The direct meaning, purport and innuendo or
insinuation of the false, misleading and defamatory
statement is that our client, Prof. Osinbajo is deceitful
and participating in a devise that constitutes subterfuge
and lacks integrity in concert with others who you also
describe as evil, insensitive, wicked, selfish and
desperate." the statement read in part
Falana said if Fani-Kayode doesn't comply with his
demands, they would proceed to court to seek redress as
he portrayed Osinbajo, who's a pastor and a Senior
Advocate of Nigeria, in a very bad light
