May Edochie, the estranged wife of popular Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has filed a ₦1 billion lawsuit against her former lawyer, Emeka Ugwuonye, over alleged cyberbullying, defamation, and cyberstalking.
In a cease-and-desist notice issued by her legal team, Graylaw Partners, May accused Ugwuonye of launching a targeted online campaign aimed at damaging her reputation and endangering her safety.
The notice reads in part: “These posts are a calculated assault on our client’s reputation and have further imperiled her safety through malicious threats and false allegations.”
It further states: “Beyond your own publications, you have incited third parties to amplify these communications, causing her severe and irreparable harm.”
May is demanding that Ugwuonye immediately cease all defamatory publications, retract existing posts, and issue a public apology across all his platforms.
She is also seeking ₦1 billion in damages as compensation for the alleged harm caused.
The notice warns that failure to comply may result in further legal action.
