Singer D’banj, through one of his lawyers, Toheeb Lawal, has filed an application at an Abuja federal court for an injunction restraining his estranged brother-in-law Do2dtun from making malicious and defamatory posts against him on social media.
The Judge Emmanuel Iyanna, gave the injunction on Wednesday, October 18, 2023, in the case with Motion No: MN/218/2023.
In granting the application, which has D’banj as the complainant and Do2dtun as the respondent, Iyanna granted “an order restraining the defendant (Do2dtun) either by himself, servants, privies, cohorts, representatives, or any person deriving authority from him from further making any malicious, intimidating or defamatory post directing at the complainant (D’banj) on any social media platform (X, Instagram, etc) or news media pending the hearing and determination of the substantive case”.
Also, the court ordered the Deputy Inspector of Police, Force Intelligence Bureau, to investigate a criminal complaint brought by D’banj against Do2dtun within two weeks and report back to court.
Do2dtun had for weeks embarked upon a social media onslaught against D’banj. The media personality was married to D’banj’s sister, Taiwo, in 2013, and the union produced two girls.
