Sophia Momodu threatens N10bn lawsuit against Caroline Hutchings over Snapchat post

Sophia Momodu, a Nigerian businesswoman and media personality, has launched legal action against actress Caroline Hutchings over a Snapchat post that she claims defamed her. The lawsuit, filed via a pre-action notice by her law firm, alleges that Hutchings' post, which criticized an unnamed woman for allegedly betraying her partner, was widely interpreted as targeting Momodu. This led to public ridicule, cyberbullying, and reputational harm. Momodu's lawyers argue that the post damaged her professional and personal reputation, causing emotional distress and unwanted attention from family, friends, and business contacts. They claim that Momodu attempted to resolve the matter privately before pursuing legal action.
