Sahara Reporters On The Run As Igwe Ben Emeka Demands One Hundred And Fifty Million Naira (150, 000, 000, 00) As Monetary Compensation For Defamatory Of Character

Chigozie

Awka,

The traditional ruler of Umueri, His Royal Majesty Igwe Sir, Benneth Emeka JP (Oke-ebo II of Umueri) has threatened legal action against Omoyele Sowore the publisher of Sahara Reporters Online News Media.

Recall that the online news media had published an allegation of financial misappropriation against the Traditional Ruler of Mkpunando Enugu-Otu Aguleri, Igwe Alex Edozieuno, but placed the picture of HRM Igwe Sir Benneth Emeka JP (Oke-ebo II of Umueri) instead of the picture Igwe Alex Edozieuno.

This singular act brought uproar which led to the reaction from Igwe Ben Emeka through his Secretary and Media Aid Mr. Tochukwu H. Chidebelu (aka Tochi Henry).

In a petition signed on behalf of Igwe Ben Emeka and made available to the media; Mr. Tochi Henry called on Sahara Reporters to as a matter of Urgency retract the false representation of Igwe Ben Emeka’s picture in that publication or face legal actions.

Among other demands included a public apology by Sahara Reporters which must be published in national dailies within 72 hours.

Our correspondents however learned that though Sahara Reporters within 24 hours reacted to the demand and pulled down the image of Igwe Ben Emeka and replaced it with another image of people demonstrating, however, Sahara Reporters have failed to render any public apology since then.

Checks by our correspondent revealed that Igwe Ben Emeka through his lawyers has written to Sahara Reporters mandating them to render a public apology that should be published in both Sahara Reporters and Premium Times. And secondly, that Sahara Reporters should pay him the sum of N150, 000, 000, 00publisher on your website, other online platforms including premium times.

3. That the sum of One Hundred and Fifty Million Naira (N150, 000, 000, 00) be paid as monetary compensation to our client.

“If you fail to comply with any of the above demands on or before the 23 day of September, 2019, we will seek legal address against you and we would not be restricted to the aforementioned demands.

Sowore should have just stayed back in New York but he was thinking he'd become Minister.

He was administered detention instead.

saharareporters was just trying to be smart by half.

below was the first publication by Saharareporters with the wrong picture of Igwe Ben Emeka the Traditional Ruler of Umueri posted on their Facebook page.

and when his secretary called the attention of Saharareporters, they went and changed the image and that publication but has refused to tender apology
