Popular influencer, Omotara Akanni sues the notable media house, Instablog 9ja over alleged defamation and libellous online publication.
On Tuesday, May 30th 2023, Tiwa Savage shared a loved-up photo of herself with a mystery man in Brazil after which Omotara penned a note against flaunting partners on social media.
She tweeted; “Flaunting your partner on social media is really not necessary. Why do people need to see who you are dating, married to, sneaky link and all that? Letting the public know what they do for you is not it. The effect of flaunting your partner are a quite a lot.
“Eg., people would make it seem as though life is not straight and it not being straight leads to pictures looking back at your life when the economy is backsliding. Of course, people will decide if the things surrounding them makes it worthy of giving glory.
Many things are not as it seems because effortlessly, the magnificent survey across the earth are not involved. You need to be aware because videos are above the order. Take my advice and abide by it❤️.”

Instablog, however, published the snapshots of the influencer’s post and linked it with that of the superstar singer, Tiwa Savage.
The blog wrote the headline, “Flaunting your partner on social media is really not necessary,” Media Personality Omotara tells singer Tiwa Savage, others.”
Following alleged harassment on social media, Omotara filed a lawsuit against the blogger for cyberbullying and defamation of character.
The suit titled was, “DEMAND FOR APOLOGY AND RETRACTION FOR DEFAMATORY AND LIBELOUS PUBLICATION AGAINST GRACE OMOWUMI AKANNI-LAWRENCE.”
It reads in part;
“You also through other social media platforms and information outlets of yours; which have now gone viral, misconstrued the tweet of Our Client to foster your malicious and libelous publications and subject Our Client to incessant ridicule, bullying and harassments, a tactical ploy to mislead the public and bring great disrepute to Our Client.
Your duplicitous and crass publications have not only exposed Our Client to harassment but has in fact traumatized and exposed her family and business to bnitish attacks and psychological abuse.”
Good day @instablog9ja
This is deemed as proper service
