Nollywood actress, Destiny Etiko, has strongly condemned the online trolling directed towards her colleague, Yul Edochie, by some netizens, over the tragic death of his son, Kambilichukwu.

Kambilichukwu Edochie, who turned 16 years old on 4th January 2023, was said to have collapsed and had a seizure while playing football at school on Wednesday, March 29th. Unfortunately, the young boy was later pronounced dead at a hospital.

After Kambilichukwu’s death was reported on social media, some netizens flooded Yul Edochie’s comments section and blamed him for his son’s death, implying that his decision to have two wives led to the tragedy.

In response, Destiny Etiko took to her social media page to criticize the trolls for their lack of compassion and pointed out that now is not the right time to drag the actor.

She wrote:

“Someone just lost his child. And y’all are still trolling him. Haba Nigerians?? Haba…Total lack of empathy. This isn’t the time for this pls. We just lost a human and not a goat or chicken”.

Popular Nigerian gospel singer, Mercy Chinwo, has filed a lawsuit against the musician, Obidiz, for using her name in a secular song.

In the March 23, 2023 lawsuit, Mercy Chinwo accused Obidiz of the derogatory use of her name and photograph in secular audio and video music.

The song in question, titled “Mercy Chinwo,” was released in 2023 and tells the story of a wayward church girl.

“She dey share me the cake, but she no want commit. Mercy Chinwo for church, but for club na Cardi B sef”, the lyrics read in part.

Through her attorneys, the gospel artist, who has built a reputation for her powerful voice, inspirational lyrics, and unwavering commitment to her faith, ordered Obidiz to remove the song from all digital platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, Sound Cloud, and others.

He must apologize to Mercy Chinwo, both privately and on social media. If he fails to meet her demands, a lawsuit will ensue and he will be forced to pay Mercy Chinwo N2 billion in damages for the slanderous use of her name.

“That you immediately CEASE AND DESIST from any further use of the name and image of Our Client in promotion of your music.

4.2 That you take down or cause to be taken down, the song titled “Mercy Chinwo” which you published on be taken down immediately from all music digital platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, Sound Cloud and any other platform whereby you made such publication.

4.4 That you immediately make public an apology in writing, addressed to Our Client and publicized on all social media platforms whereby you express a retraction and remorse for the harassment, defamation of character and unauthorized use of Our Client’s name and image.” The suit read in part.
