Rape: Stop social media trial, I’m innocent – D’Banj

Music icon, Oladapo Oyebanjo aka D’Banj on Monday asked Nigerians to stop persecuting him on social media over a rape allegation involving himself and one Seyitan Babatayo.

The artiste was accused of forcefully having carnal knowledge of Babatayo two years ago, one that has generated controversy on social media.

The musician, however, denied the allegations levelled against him and asked his accuser to make a public apology and also pay him the sum of N100m in damages.
