Abike Dabiri Slams N500m Suit On Diamond Bank

Former House of Representatives member Abike Dabiri-Erewa, today slammed a N500m libel suit on Diamond Bank Plc for maliciously publishing her name as one of the bank’s debtors on Punch Newspaper which came out on Monday. 

Dabiri said as a well known politician the said publication has subjected her to public opprobrium, ridicule and embarrassment of monumental proportion. 

Before now, Mrs Erewa had mandated her lawyer to forward a letter to the bank for a retraction but after refusing to comply with her demands, she had no choice than to sue them.
