Human rights lawyer, Deji Adeyanju has retracted and apologised for the alleged defamatory statements made against the acting National Chairman and the acting National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Umar Damagun and Senator Samuel Anyanwu.
Adeyanju’s apology was contained in a letter dated December 6, written from his law firm, Deji Adeyanju & Partners, and signed by Zainab Otega.
The letter stated that the “statements were not intended to defame your clients” and that any perception of defamation in the said statements is regretted and withdrawn with apologies.
The apology comes after Damagun and Anyanwu threatened to drag Adeyanju to court for civil and criminal litigation over the alleged defamatory remarks.
Adeyanju had accused Damagun of serving tea and Anyanwu of serving ‘Kilishi’ in the house of President Bola Tinubu’s Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila.
