“I have said it before and will say it again that I am not aware of any child between Omo VC and myself.

“It is a political season within our industry.

“All sort of things like these are inevitable but for me, this is taken too far.

“It is defamatory and unpleasant.”

What did the court say?

It also warned Mariam from releasing further defamatory content against MC Oluomo.

The lawsuit was heard by Honorable Justice M. O Dawodu on March 14th, 2024.

Omo VC had previously accused MC Oluomo of threatening her life and that of her daughter in a lengthy Instagram post in February.

She claimed to have a daughter with MC Oluomo, alleging he failed to provide for the child’s welfare.

According to her, the MC Oluomo, a known thug, even ordered his security personnel to shoot at her during a visit to his residence.

What did MC Oluomo say?

On his part, MC Oluomo denied knowledge of any child between them.

When contacted, he stated that they had separated about two years ago.

He insisted that he was unaware of any child until the recent claims surfaced.

He emphasized that such accusations were defamatory and politically motivated, especially given the upcoming elections within the transportation industry.

MC Oluomo expressed his trust in the Nigerian justice system.

He hopes that the court would uphold justice based on the evidence, rather than taking matters into his own hands.

He said: “I am a public figure and law-abiding citizen of the country.

“I have proceeded to court as against the thoughts of some individuals.

“Some People who are intentional at attaching unethical conducts to my name.

“And those who like to stereotype transport workers as people who engage in unlawful conducts due to the character of some bad eggs among us, which is inescapable of any profession.

“I don’t take laws into my hands, and I believe in the process of the court to defend my reputation.

“That is why I have engaged one of the young promising lawyers in Nigeria, Barr Dotun Ajulo to be my counselor,” he said.
