Busola Dakolo and wife music star Timi Dakolo on Thursday had her case against Pastor
Biodun Fatoyinbo of the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA) throw out by an
Abuja High Court seating in Bwari.
Mr.
Fatoyinbo had filed an objection and an affidavit at the Court reiterating that
Busola’s statements were false and concocted to embarrass, scandalise and
ridicule Fatoyinbo.
He argued
that from the inception, she sought the attention of the media and press, and
brought the civil action even while the Police’s investigation was ongoing.
According to
Justice Oathman A. Musa in her judgment, the matter amounted to injustice, and
an abuse of judicial process as the case was empty and purely sentimental,
adding that the case was aimed more at cruelty than obtaining justice.
The court
also awarded costs of N1,000,000 against Busola Dakolo and held that the fine
should have been 10 times more because the court’s time was wasted.
Dakolo had
filed the suit against Fatoyinbo after she claimed that the COZA pastor raped
her 20 years ago when she was 16 years in Ilorin, Kwara State.
Fatoyinbo
denied the allegations and even took a break from the pulpit and later came
back to ministration.
