Former OAP Daddy Freeze has spoken out after a judge sentenced him to pay a N5 million fine for adultery.
The court decision, backed by an appeal court, came from a 2021 lawsuit between Daddy Freeze, his wife, and her ex-husband.
The High Court in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, ordered the media celebrity to pay N5 million for sleeping with a lady who was still lawfully married at the time.
Daddy Freeze stated in a video on his YouTube channel that the court decision was acquired when he was not there.
He claimed the ruling surprised him, as it did many of his followers.
He stated that he would be approaching the Appeal Court to seek a fair judgement.
Daddy Freeze’s appeal was however dismissed due to a lack of merit, with the court suggesting that he should have filed a counter-affidavit against the affidavit of service to overturn the trial court’s judgment.
Reacting through his Instagram live video, Daddy Freeze showed his luxury watches, stating that his watches alone are worth over N100 million, demonstrating that the fine does not disturb him.
He claims innocence and views the incident as a past torment that he and the lady have moved beyond.
He said:
“I Will Pay The N5Million Adultery Fine; my Watches alone Cost Over N100Million, But I Am Innocent, and I will not lose; I am innocent; this happened Many years ago. I was Going Through serious Torment, so was the lady, and we both Jam many years later in Church; this happened over 12 years ago”.
