However, Fayoses lawyers, in the notice, said their client woke up to messages from friends and acquaintances about his name trending on social media over the allegations.

Questioning the womans reference to her three-year-old son in the allegations, the lawyers stated, Assuming and not conceding to the allegation of raping and torturing you in any form by our client, was your son raped and tortured as well? They added, What has our client got to do with your three-year-old son that you mentioned in your malicious publication? You can reserve your answer. The lawyers demanded that she retract the publications and issue an apology within three days, insisting that the withdrawal should also extend to bloggers and other social media accounts that had circulated the allegations. They stated, We have the immediate instructions of our client to demand for the immediate and unconditional retraction of the defamatory and malicious publication with an unreserved apology to our client WITHIN THREE (3) DAYS. The notice further warned that failure to comply with the demand would lead to legal action. TAKE NOTICE that should you fail to retract and withdraw the said malicious publication on or before the three days time limit, we shall resort to any possible legal means that includes and not limited to, taking a civil action and a petition to the appropriate authority for investigation and possible prosecution, the lawyers said. The rape and torture allegations have not been independently verified, and no official findings establishing their veracity were provided in the materials available.
