A lady identified as Osarobo Osarenoma Odigie is seeking N395 million in damages from TikToker Peller, accusing him of defamation, cyber harassment, and invasion of privacy at a lounge.
The incident occurred on January 6, 2026, at Folixxx Lounge along the Lekki-Epe Expressway in Lagos.
The dispute began when the content creator posted a video of Odigie standing at the counter area trying to buy food, labelling her a “hater” after she allegedly told him he was being too loud.
In a letter from her legal representative dated March 10, Odigie claimed that Peller’s “demeaning, false, and defamatory” statements had exposed her to “public ridicule, explicit threats, and a breach of her privacy”.
She argued that his decision to publish the video online to his large following caused her “emotional distress and fears for my safety”.
She said the virality of the clip and its reposting by bloggers and other platforms further amplified the alleged defamation.
“The result of your actions, in particular, the untrue and defamatory statements as well as breach of her privacy and right to be forgotten, has since led to our client being exposed to public ridicule both online and offine,” the letter reads in part.
“She has also been unjustly met with harassment, cyberbullying and cyberstalking by persons of the public all motivated by your disparaging remarks against her.
“Our Client has suffered significant emotional distress and has developed genuine fears for her safety. Without prejudice to Our Client’s right to commence legal proceedings and seek all avallable remedies under the law, we have her firm instructions to state that all words and expressions used against her person (whether written, oral, or otherwise pubilished), whether or not specifically referenced in this letter, are false, malicious and highly defamatory.”
Odigie demanded that Peller immediately cease making comments about her, delete the video from social media and also instruct all blogs that reposted the video to delete it.
She also asked him to issue a retraction and public apology on all his social media platforms and in two national newspapers, and to urge his followers to stop any “harassment and threats”.
The letter demands that within seven days, Peller pay a total of N395 million as “compensation and legal fees”. Failure to meet the demands, the letter warned, will result in immediate legal action.
“You immediately cease and desist from any further publication, reposting, 5/6 commentary, circulation, or dissemination (whether directly or indirectly) of the said video, any related defamatory statements concerning Our Client,” the letter added.
“You immediately take steps to permanently delete and remove the offending video and all related posts from your Snapchat, WhatsApp, and any other social media platforms, digital channels, or forums within your possession, custody, or control.
“You issue a clear, unequivocal, and public apology to Our Client across all platforms where the defamatory content was published, retracting the said statements in their entirety and acknowledging that they were false, malicious, and injurious to Our Client’s reputation.
“You issue and publish the said apology and retraction in two (2) national dally newspapers in Nigeria, namely The Punch and The Guardian, in a manner and form acceptable to Our Client, clearly retracting the defamatory statements and acknowledging that they were false, malicious, and injurious to Our Client’s reputation, and further calling upon your followers and the general public to desist m any further harassment, threats, or defamatory commentary directed at Our Client.
“You immediately notify, in writing, all third-party websites, blogs, online platforms, and any other digital channels where the defamatory video or related statements concerning Our Client have been published, reposted, or otherwise circulated, demanding the permanent removal and deletion of such content.
“You are to ensure full compliance by these third parties and provide Our Client with written confirmation of such takedown within seven (7) days of receipt of this letter. Be advised that failure to effect the removal of these defamatory materials will result in your continued liability for the said defamatory publications, and such liability will be treated as continuing, actionable, and fully enforceable under the law.
