D’banj has responded to rape allegations made against him.
Recall that mp3bullet.ng had reported that D’banj was accused by a Benjamin Ese of raping his friend in a hotel.
Benjamin claimed that D’banj sighted his friend during a party in lekki and had later collected her hotel room key from the reception and gained access to her room where he raped her.
The lady who later identified her as Seyitan Babatayo through her lawyers demanded a public apology from D’banj.
The official demands contained in the letter addressed to the singer include a personal letter of apology to their client, as well as a public apology to her, to be published in two national dailies
Taking to Instagram to address the allegation, D’banj wrote a lengthy post on the issue.
“Today is exactly 1 week after my birthday and this will be the only time I will address the recent false allegations and lies from the pit of hell.
I have chosen to do so because the incident is a slap to my marriage and my beautiful wife, my entire family, and those who believe in me. I did not want to dignify the slurs with a response but it appears my silence has empowered my accusers to think i have been scared into the shadows so I would like to state that This Accusation are false and ludicrous and Have been handed over to my Legal Team.
It’s unfortunate that this is coming a few weeks before the second anniversary of my late son Daniel And this well-timed falsehood has reopened the painful scars of my deep loss.
To my fans and loved ones, thanks for the support, your positive comments, and prayers. God bless us all.
