Frank Edoho’s alleged partner, Adekoya Ibukunoluwa has filed a defamation suit against his estranged wife, Sandra Edoho, over claims she made on social media.
According to the lawsuit, Ibukunoluwa accused Sandra of posting her photo, private WhatsApp chats and a video on Instagram after her marriage to Frank ended, allegedly suggesting she was one of the women involved with the media personality.
She argued that the posts were false, malicious and exposed her to online harassment, ridicule and damage to her reputation.
Ibukunoluwa is asking the court to compel Sandra to remove the posts, publish a public apology, stop making similar allegations in the future and pay ₦100 million in damages.
Her lawyers also proposed an out-of-court settlement, requesting a ₦20 million compensation, deletion of the posts and a public apology, while giving Sandra seven days to respond before further legal action.

Frank Edoho, who has five children from two marriages, publicly addressed the end of his second marriage in May, saying he had accepted the situation and was now focused, at peace and grateful for the support he received.
The legal dispute comes months after Frank Edoho confirmed the collapse of his second marriage to Sandra Onyenucheya.
Their marriage lasted more than a decade and produced two children, bringing the TV host’s total to five.
Following the separation, the former couple became the subject of widespread speculation, with reports alleging infidelity on both sides.
While Sandra was accused in some reports of having an affair with a popular singer, Adekoya’s lawsuit now shifts attention to allegations that Sandra also made damaging claims about women she believed were linked to Frank.
However, as of the time of filing, Sandra had been given seven days to respond to the legal demands or face further court proceedings. Neither Sandra nor Frank has publicly commented on the lawsuit.
