An entrepreneur, Adekoya Ibukunoluwa (also referred to as Monisola), has demanded N100 million in damages from Sandra Edoho, the estranged wife of popular broadcaster Frank Edoho, over alleged defamatory Instagram posts.
In a memorandum of claim dated July 17, 2026, signed by her lawyer Festus Ogun of FOLEGAL, Adekoya accused Sandra of libel, fraudulent misrepresentation, and breach of privacy.
The claims centre on posts allegedly made on Sandra’s Instagram page, “vivibella_designs.”
According to the legal document, the issue began in October 2023 when Adekoya met Frank Edoho by chance at Hardrock Café in Lekki, Lagos. They bonded over their support for Arsenal Football Club and exchanged contacts.
The memorandum alleges that on November 19, 2023, Sandra impersonated her husband on WhatsApp and invited Adekoya to their residence in Victoria Garden City, Lagos, with an offer of N10 million.
Adekoya was allegedly picked up by someone posing as Frank’s brother and locked in a room upon arrival.
Frank reportedly woke up shocked by the situation and apologised to Adekoya, according to the claim.
Adekoya’s lawyers further alleged that following a marital crisis between Sandra and Frank in May 2026, Sandra launched a social media campaign by posting Adekoya’s photograph, private WhatsApp conversations, and a video.
The posts allegedly portrayed her as one of several women involved with Frank.
One quoted post read: “Or is it the smelling prostitute whom you led into our home? Where I had a video record you escorting her to the gate.”
The legal team described the publications as “blatantly false, mischievous and misleading,” claiming they damaged Adekoya’s reputation by labelling her a “prostitute, sex worker and a person of questionable character.”
The posts reportedly went viral and led to cyberbullying and public ridicule.
Adekoya is seeking a court declaration that the May 19, 2026 Instagram post was defamatory, an order for Sandra to retract the posts and issue a public apology, a perpetual injunction against further publications, N100 million in damages, and legal costs.
The memorandum also proposed an out-of-court settlement involving deletion of the posts, a public apology acknowledging the alleged impersonation, and payment of N20 million in damages. Sandra was given seven days to respond.
