The Son of a renowned Human Right lawyer, Femi Falana, Folarin Falana popularly known as Falz, has given social media influencer VeryDarkMan a 24-hour ultimatum to retract alleged defamatory statements made against him and his father.
The ultimatum was issued through a letter from Falana & Falana Chambers, demanding an immediate retraction and apology for the claims made in a September 25, 2024 post on Instagram accusing Falana of attempting to secure a presidential pardon for Bobrisky in exchange for N10,000,000.
The letter described the claims as vicious, wicked, and reckless while asserting that they were intended to tarnish the lawyer’s esteemed reputation.
It further clarified that Falana has never communicated with Bobrisky regarding any matter, let alone seeking a presidential pardon for him.
The claims, according to the letter, suggested that Falana’s advocacy was driven by personal financial gain and violated the Legal Practitioner’s Rules of Professional Conduct including his lifelong fight against injustice and corruption.
