Actress Georgina Onuoha has knocked her colleague Eniola Badmus for getting a TikToker Ego arrested and detained for accusing her of being a pimp.
In a lengthy post on her Instagram page on Tuesday night, Georgina claimed defamation is not a criminal offence and it was illegal for her to arrest and detain the lady.
The 42-year-old told Eniola to sue Ego for damages and stop abusing power and intimidating the lady.
She wrote in part, “In any functioning society, if someone defames you, it is within your rights to seek damages done to your reputation. What she did was wrong and defamatory. Eniola your next line of action will be to sue her for defamation and seek restitution.
“Arresting her means you are equally breaking the law. Slander or defamation is not a criminal offence that warrants arrest and parading this young woman like a criminal. Yes, she defamed you, sue her for damages. This is an abuse of power and intimidation on your part. Use the law diligently and not oppressively. Shame on the police officers indulging in this nonsense.”
