A woman alleged to have been romantically linked to media personality Frank Edoho has dragged his estranged wife, Sandra Edoho, to court, demanding ₦100 million in damages over alleged defamatory social media posts.
The claimant alleged that in November 2023, Sandra impersonated Frank Edoho on WhatsApp and invited her to the Edoho residence in Lagos under the guise of offering her ₦10 million. She claimed she was taken there by someone posing as Frank's brother, who allegedly locked her in a room, adding that Frank later apologised after discovering what had happened.
She further alleged that after the breakdown of Sandra and Frank's marriage, Sandra published her photograph, private WhatsApp conversations and a video on Instagram, portraying her as one of the women allegedly involved with the media personality.
According to the suit, the publications were false and malicious, exposing her to cyberbullying, public ridicule and reputational damage after they circulated widely online.
The claimant is asking the court to declare the posts defamatory, order Sandra to delete them, issue a public apology, restrain her from making similar publications and award her ₦100 million in damages and legal costs.
Her legal team also proposed an out-of-court settlement, requesting that Sandra remove the posts, apologise publicly and pay ₦20 million in compensation. She has been given seven days to respond or face legal proceedings.
As of the time of this report, Sandra Edoho has not publicly responded to the lawsuit or the allegations contained in the court filing.
