Businessman Tunde Ayeni has said he would write the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) asking it to void any passport presented by his former lover Adaobi Alagwu and her child Omarosa, bearing his name.
Mr Ayeni and Ms Alagwu have been involved in a paternity scandal for some time. Supported by his wife Abiola, the businessman earlier said a DNA test revealed he was not the father of Alagwu’s daughter.
In a ‘Cease and Desist’ legal notice dated February 12 which he sent to Alagwu through his lawyer Dele Adesina (SAN), Ayeni said neither Alagwu nor her daughter is entitled to use his name on travel documents as he has no familial relationship with them.
A copy of the legal notice was released to the media over the weekend.

Part of it reads, “We would like to refer to an incident that took place sometime in the month of January this year at 36 Birao Street where you illegally entered into one of our properties formerly occupied by you of which you had surrendered possession over six months prior. Your reasons for the unauthorized entry was not acceptable to our clients which necessitated the report of the incident which they authorized to be made at the Wuse 2 Police Station, Abuja.
“In the course of one of the conferences held at the Police station, we consider your narrative which resulted in your alluding to your daughter with a United States Passport No: A02198826 dated 21ST June, 2022 in the name of Omarosa Abimbola Ayeni as our client’s daughter to be highly disrespectful, disingenuous, and to say the least, unacceptable to our clients.”
The notice further reads, “Kindly take notice therefore that our client has resolved to dissociate their family name and consanguinity from your daughter from this day henceforth and as such is giving you notice that no reference or future reference be made to their family name with regards to Omarosa Abimbola. Our client shall notify the Nigerian Immigration Service about this status for record purposes in this regard.”
