Nollywood Actress, Mimi Orjiekwe Reacts To Police Arrest, N700m Fraud Allegation

Nollywood actress, Mimi Orjiekwe has reacted to reports that she was arrested over a 700 million naira fraud allegation by UK-Dion’s Mr Michael Diongoli.
Recall that it was also reported that she was thrown into the custody of the Nigerian Police over Michael Diongoli’s allegations.
However, her legal team has revealed that both the purported arrest and 700 million naira claim were untrue.
According to a tweet by Mimi’s lawyer, Barr Chino Obiagwu SAN on Wednesday July 26, Mimi only visited the Special Fraud Unit of the Ikoyi police station at the invitation of the police based on allegations made by Mr. Michael Diongoli, who bought furniture from her Interior decoration company, FBM Homes in 2021.
Despite S 8(2) of Admin criminal justice act 2015, @policeng continues to arrest & Detain suspects on matters boarding on civil transactions.  Lately, my client, actress and interior designer @MimiOrjiekweng was invited by SFU on a contract dispute. @policeng impunity must end now.” Obiagwu wrote
In a statement released by Barr. Obiagwu, he explained that Diongoli, who has allegedly refused to pay an outstanding of 89 million naira for storage and clearance charges, allegedly resorted to using the police to intimidate his client so that he will collect the goods without paying.
Read Obiagwu’s statement below:
‘’Mr. Diongoli claimed that Mimi refused to supply the furniture he paid for and that he was defrauded. He also falsely claimed that the contract was for 700 million naira when actually it was for 472 million naira.
 
‘’At the police station, Mimi was said to have explained that the civil transaction between her and Mr. Diongoli was purely contractual and outside the criminal jurisdiction of the police.
 
‘’Meanwhile, FBM Homes couldn’t complete the installation of the furniture at Diongoli’s because her workers were asked to leave the site, following the confiscation of the building by EFCC and Interpol.
 
‘’All the furniture procured for Diongoli’s house are stored in a secured warehouse, which Mr Diongoli, on his release from custody, refused to pay the outstanding balance of 89 million including storage and clearance charges.  
 
‘’Mr. Michael Diongoli’s tactics of using the police to harass and intimidate Ms. Orjiekwe to collect the remaining furniture without paying the outstanding balance has been challenged in a suit filed by her lawyer at the Federal High Court Lagos for the enforcement of her fundamental rights. Also, the unlawful posts made on blogs about the so-called arrests as a result of the false allegations by Mr. Diongoli were part of the court claims, in which a compensation of N200m has been claimed on her behalf.
 
‘’Mimi has since returned to her normal life and business, as the law is clear under the Police Act 2020 and the Administration of Criminal Justice Act 2015 that no criminal charge can arise from a matter that borders on civil  transactions.” Obiagwu said

During the nomination session on Monday, July 24, Kiddwaya nominated Ilebaye and referred to her as a ‘low-hanging fruit’ and a ‘red meat in the midst of lions.’ He insinuated that she should leave the show early so the stronger contenders can compete.

In a seeming reaction to his statement, Queen, a former housemate from the ‘Shine Ya Eye’ season, expressed her disappointment in the housemates for belittling Ilebaye.

She strongly condemned any form of intimidation in the house, and emphasized that nobody is superior to Ilebaye, as they are all competing for the same coveted grand prize.

The mother of one shared a photo of Ilebaye with the caption: “I hate intimidation in every form. Not fair the way some HMS are treating her.

Girl stand up for yourself in there. No one in there is bigger than you. If they come for you, go for them … everyone in there, went there for same reason you’re there….”
