Remember that the singer who was signed at the time under Davido’s record label, DMW records, was called out in October 2020 for subjecting his wife, Okeoghene, to physical and verbal assault when they were dating. In a post shared on her Instagram page, Okeoghene said she had been in a relationship with the musician since January 2020 and that he would violently attack her any time they had a disagreement, leaving her with severe bodily injuries.

 

 “He consistently slapped me on the face, kicking, pushing me on other sensitive parts. The recent attack happened in September 2020, when he attacked me and rained blow on my head with bruises on my face. I partially lost my sight and had sleepless nights. He repeatedly boasted that since he is a well-known musician he is untouchable.”

With the help of the International Association of Women Lawyers, Lagos State branch, a lawsuit against Lilfrosh was filed before the State Magistrate Court of Lagos in Yaba.

The Magistrate, Adeola Olatunbosun, adjourned the case until March 9, 2021, at the hearing on Tuesday, February 9, and ordered that he be remanded at the Ikoyi Correctional Center.
