Alleged Leaked Sex Tape: I Didn’t Give Oxlade Consent to Record Our Sex Romp – Lady

For allegedly leaking a sex tape of romantic actions that occurred between him and his ‘lady friend’, a Nigeria artiste, Ikuforijimi Olaitan Abdulrahman, popularly known as Oxlade, has been dragged before the High Court of Lagos State, Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS).

The artiste was specifically alleged to have also granted interviews on and had released the sex tape on several social media and blogs.

As a result, the claimant, Miss John Blessing, in her legal action designated LD/ADR/5468/2024, through her lawyer, Olabisi O. Oluwafemi, is asking the court for the following reliefs against Oxlade: “A declaration that the interview granted and published by the defendant on one Joe Akan’s Instagram platform @Joey Akan and on YouTube platform @ Afrobeats intelligence of the 15th and 16th of March 2024, in respect of the sex tape between the defendant and the claimant, and the consequent reactions and comments posted and published on various social media blogs, against the person and reputation of the claimant amounts to defamation of the claimant.

“A declaration that the interview granted and published by the defendant on one Joey Akan’s Instagram platform @Joey Akan and on YouTube platform @ Afrobeats Intelligence on the 15th and 16th of March 2024 in respect of the sex tape between the defendant and the claimant, is a calculated attempt to disparage the integrity of the court and same amount to contempt of court as per the judgement of the court delivered on the 24th of January 2023.

“An order mandating Oxlade to tender an unquantified and unreserved apology to the claimant, to be published on all his social media handles and in at least three (3) newspapers with nationwide readership or circulation for all the harm the defendant has caused the claimant.

“An order of perpetual injunction restraining the defendant (Oxlade) by himself, his agents, privies, assigns, and personal representatives from making any oral or written statement about the claimant which is intended or reasonably, likely to disparage the claimant or otherwise degrade her reputation, whether such statement is truthful, fictionalised, and/or an option forthwith.

“Damages in the sum of N100 million only, being exemplary damages and compensation for the injury and emotional trauma caused to the claimant by the defendant’s defamatory publication and the consequential comments published by various social media blogs against the person and reputation of the claimant.”

In her statement of claim, the claimant who is a student and caterer, averred that she met the defendant (Oxlade) sometime in 2020 through social media, adding that they both became friends and thereafter started an amorous relationship which resulted in her visitation to the defendant’s residence located at Willow Greens Estate, Herbert Orji Avenue, Osapa London, Lekki Phase 2, Lagos on February 7, 2022.

While revealing that during the visitation, the defendant (Oxlade) persisted in expressing his passionate love and feelings for her to lure her into engaging in sexual intercourse with him, the claimant stated that after much persuasion, she could no longer resist the defendant, hence, she and the defendant engaged in sexual intercourse.

Blessing said even though she consented to the sexual intercourse between her and the defendant, she had no prior knowledge that their sexual escapade was recorded and that she did not consent to any recording whatsoever.

The claimant insisted that by reason of the libellous materials/comments, her person and reputation have been seriously battered and damaged, and she has thereby suffered considerable hurt, pain, distress, and embarrassment.

As of the time of filing this report, the defendant has yet to file any response or counterclaim to the suit, while no date has been fixed for the hearing of the suit.
