Furthermore, D’banj stated that his accuser was nothing but a gold digger. She was on a mission to destroy the reputation he had built for nearly two decades in the music industry.

The musician said he was married when the purported rape took place. In addition, the allegation was an insult to his wife.

It will be recalled that a couple of weeks back, Vera Uwa was raped in Benin. This sparked a lot of outrage. Many victims came out on social media to call out their abusers. Miss Babatayo equally joined in the call out.
