Burna Boy Taking Legal Action Against Someone Defaming Him Is Not Oppression – Ayo Shonaiya

Popular Lawyer and entertainment consultant, Ayo Shonaiya has come out to say that Deji Adeyanju is confusing being a lawyer with being an activist.

He recently had his say via his social media page, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, a plaintiff taking legal action against someone who is defaming him is not oppression or harassment, so Deji should stop attacking Burna Boy aggressively.

Ayo added that if Deji’s client keeps doing the same thing he was arrested for in the first place, especially while out on bail, he will get rearrested.

His words, “I believe Deji Adeyanju is confusing being a Lawyer with being an Activist. A Plaintiff taking legal action against someone who’s defaming him is NOT oppression or harassment.

If your Client keeps doing the same thing he was arrested for in the first place, especially while out on Bail, he will get rearrested. Simple.

His Clients don’t know the difference between defamatory statements and freedom of speech, and it’s looking like he also doesn’t.”

WOW.
