Wedding dress saga: Actress Mercy Aigbe threatens to sue both bride and designer

January 17,2018
Share:
By Rita Chioma,
The lingering ‘Red Dress’ scandal continues as actress, Mercy Aigbe just threatened to sue the bride, Lawrentta Adesuwa Sawyer for “falsely” accusing her of “connivance with the said designer.”
She is also suing the designer, Maryam Elisha for failing to issue a public statement that Mercy has ever met her or transacted business with her.
The actress took to her Instagram page to post the letter from her lawyer demanding a public retraction of this  statement contained in the letter from her lawyer:
‘the sequence detailed above has evidenced a deliberate and fraudulent conspiracy between the designer and Ms Mercy Aigbe to convert our client’s legal property for selfish gains’. 
Mercy Aigbe has demanded a public apology within 7 days or she’ll also seek redress in a law court and further sue the bride and the designer for false accusation and trying to defame her person.
She captioned the letter thus:

The lingering ‘Red Dress’ issue continued this morning as the bride threatened to sue the designer Rikaotobyme and also falsely accused me of connivance with the said designer …..( without substantial proof or evidence )
Having served Rikaotobyme a letter tru my lawyer on Jan 8 to issue an official statement on the above subject matter with clear indications that I have never met her before or transacted business with her which she failed to do, I have instructed my lawyer to go ahead and seek redress.

For the bride, in as much as I sympathize with her, I take exception to her accusing me falsely and trying to cast aspersions on my person.
I have given the bride tru her lawyers 7 days to retract the statement that read thus; ‘the sequence detailed above has evidenced a deliberate and fraudulent conspiracy between the designer and Ms Mercy Aigbe to convert our client’s legal property for selfish gains’. This is a malicious allegation. Whao, where is the legal property I want to convert. What a statement. I hereby demand a retraction and public apology, failure to do so I will have no option than to seek redress in the law court by suing her ( the bride) and the designer for false accusation and trying to defame my person…….???
