Red Dress Saga: Mercy Aigbe Responds to Bride, Demands Public Apology Within Seven Days

Mercy Aigbe responds with a letter from her lawyer.

The lingering crises over the Red Dress Mercy Aigbe wore for her birthday photoshoot has just taken a new turn. Though the actress kept calm over the issue for a while, she finally responded last week, stating that she has never met the designer in person. She added also that the designer didn’t handle the matter professionally.

Unsatisfied by the way she was treated, the bride headed to court to take legal actions against Mercy and the designer (Read here). Mercy Aigbe on the other hand felt offended by the brides actions and has issued a seven day ultimatum to the bride to tender a public apology to her.

She made this known in an IG post where she registered her displeasure over the bride stating that as much as she sympathize with her, she takes exception to her accusing her falsely.

She wrote;

The lingering ‘Red Dress’ issue continued this morning as the bride threatened to sue the designer Rikaotobyme and also falsely accused me of connivance with the said designer …..( without substantial proof or evidence )
Having served Rikaotobyme a letter tru my lawyer on Jan 8 to issue an official statement on the above subject matter with clear indications that I have never met her before or transacted business with her which she failed to do, I have instructed my lawyer to go ahead and seek redress.

For the bride, in as much as I sympathize with her, I take exception to her accusing me falsely and trying to cast aspersions on my person.
I have given the bride tru her lawyers 7 days to retract the statement that read thus; ‘the sequence detailed above has evidenced a deliberate and fraudulent conspiracy between the designer and Ms Mercy Aigbe to convert our client’s legal property for selfish gains’. This is a malicious allegation. Whao, where is the legal property I want to convert. What a statement. I hereby demand a retraction and public apology, failure to do so I will have no option than to seek redress in the law court by suing her ( the bride) and the designer for false accusation and trying to defame my person…….???

Hope it all ends soon.
