BEVERLY HILLS, May 25, (THEWILL) – Fast-rising Nigerian Singer, Timeleyin Olorunyomi, better known as BadBoyTimz, has slammed his ex-label with a N200 million lawsuit for defamation of character.
THEWILL recalls that BadBoyTimz was seen in handcuffs in a video that went viral last week.
According to reports, the singer was arrested for “defrauding his label and show promoters.”
Reacting, in a new post on Instagram, the singer stated that his arrest was illegal and it was a result of the actions of Mr. Temple and Precious Egamasi who wanted to defame his character and deceive the general public in respect to his (Timz) relationship with his former label.
BadboyTimz also made it known that although the label has apologised for posting the video of him in cuffs online it is not enough for defamation of character.
The letter partly read: “We, therefore, write to demand that you take the following steps within 7 days.
“A letter from the company jointly signed by Messers Temple Egemasi and Precious Egemasi to our client containing a suitable apology for the publication of the offensive video.
“The said letter will be published in three different national newspapers.
“Payment of N200,000,000 as damages for the publication of the offensive video.”
