Nollywood Feud Escalates: Hilbert Counters Etiko's Defamation Suit with Her Own Lawsuit

 

A bitter dispute between Nollywood actresses Destiny Etiko and Queeneth Hilbert has taken a dramatic turn, with Hilbert filing a lawsuit against Etiko, just days after Etiko initiated her own legal action.

The ongoing conflict stems from allegations made by Hilbert, claiming Etiko engaged in inappropriate relationships with other people's partners. This prompted Etiko to file a N100 million defamation lawsuit, demanding Hilbert retract her statements and cease further defamatory remarks within 48 hours. Etiko's legal team also vehemently denied Hilbert's accusations.

Now, Hilbert has retaliated with her own lawsuit, effectively countering Etiko's legal moves. Her action aims to prevent Etiko's arrest, which Hilbert characterizes as a threat to her personal freedom. The lawsuit also seeks a permanent injunction against Etiko's arrest, ensuring she can continue her professional activities without legal interference.

The dueling lawsuits have transformed the personal dispute into a high-profile legal battle, capturing the attention of Nollywood fans and observers across the country. The situation remains tense, with both actresses firmly entrenched in their positions, and the legal outcomes are eagerly awaited.
