Funke Akindele Threatens Legal Action Against Linda Ikeji

Funke Akindele, has threatened to initiate legal action against Nigerian blogger, Linda Ikeji. She asked Ms. Ikeji to pull down post published on her blog on January 25, titled, ‘Did Funke Akindele shade Toyin Aimakhu last night?’ and tender an apology within 24 hours. 

In the post, Ms. Ikeji suggested that an Instagram picture on Ms. Akindele’s page was intended as a slight on fellow actress, Ms. Aimakhu, who was recently rumoured to have separated from her husband, Adeniyi Johnson. According to Ms. Ikeji, the two actresses were previously not in good terms and Ms. Aimakhu had “shaded” Ms. Akindele over the latter’s 2014 divorce.
 
Ms Akindele, through her management, said the blog post exposed her to “cynical comments and hasty judgements”. “(The post has portrayed) Funke Akindele’s brand in bad light,” her management said. “It has promoted unhealthy rivalry where there is none.”

 ‎ Ms. Akindele’s lawyer, in a seven paragraph letter gotten by sources expressed that the post was “borne out of pure malice for our client who has carved an inch (sic) for herself in the entertainment industry whilst also inciting hatred between our client and Toyin Aimakhu on one hand and our client and her fans on the other hand.” Ms. Ikeji was told to take down the post, offer a retraction and provide the link to Ms. Akindeke’s team.
