CAUTION ABOUT FALSE AND DEFAMATORY PUBLICATION AGAINST EVANGELIST TOPE ALABI
A cease-and-desist notice concerning the writing, publication, or circulation of defamatory reports about renowned gospel singer Evangelist Tope Alabi has been issued to members of the public by her solicitors.
In the notice, the singer's legal representatives warned members of the public against making or circulating false, malicious, or defamatory statements capable of tarnishing the image and reputation she has painstakingly built over the past thirty years. They particularly cautioned individuals who hide behind anonymous or unidentified social media accounts to publish damaging allegations about the gospel artiste.
The solicitors further stated that anyone who has published or circulated false information about their client should immediately remove such publications from all platforms and issue an appropriate retraction. They emphasised that the continued circulation of unverified allegations and defamatory statements would not be tolerated, especially when such publications are intended to damage the singer's reputation, professional standing, and public image.
Furthermore, the legal representatives warned individuals who use anonymous accounts, pseudonyms, or other concealed identities to spread defamatory content that their identities could be uncovered through appropriate legal processes. They stressed that hiding behind an anonymous social media profile does not provide immunity from legal consequences or protect anyone from being held accountable for unlawful publications.
The solicitors also made it clear that appropriate legal action would be taken against anyone found responsible for publishing, sharing, or promoting defamatory material about the singer. They maintained that the law provides remedies for individuals whose reputations have been damaged by false and malicious publications, regardless of the platforms through which such information is disseminated.
The notice serves as a stern warning to social media users and members of the general public to exercise caution and responsibility when making statements about public figures. It also underscores the importance of verifying information before publishing or sharing allegations that could cause reputational damage.
Evangelist Tope Alabi, who has spent more than three decades building her career and establishing herself as a respected voice in gospel music, is determined to protect her reputation against any publication considered false, malicious or defamatory.
