Read What U.S Court Told Dangote’s Ex-girlfriend To Do.
An ex-girlfriend of the African richest man, Aliko Dangote, has been given a 20-day ultimatum to respond to the libel suit filed by the businessman.
According to a US court’s ‘civil action summons’ obtained by PREMIUM TIMES, on Friday, the court said Spikes has “20 calendar days” from the day she is served with the suit to respond.
However, Autumn Spikes, has said she has yet to be served the court documents, adding that Dangote offered her money to keep the relationship private.
Gistlover had reported that Dangote filed a libel suit at a Miami-Dade County Court in Florida, U.S. against Spikes, who exposed a part of his body via a social media post.
The wealthy businessman used the pseudonym, John Doe, with AD, which stands for the ‘acronym’ for his name, Aliko Dangote, as his alias.
One of the court documents filed by the plaintiff on January 22, is titled, ‘Complaint petition for declaratory judgment complaint about extortion petition for injunctive relief’.
It stated that Dangote’s “business acumen has made him a target for coercion by the defendant”, adding that Spikes demanded “meritless claims of $5 million” in the nature of “palimony to which she is not legally entitled”.
“Autumn Spikes has made a demand that the plaintiff pays her five million dollars ($5,000,000.00) as shown in Exhibit 1,” Dangote’s court document states.
Recall, however, that Miss Spikes on Instagram shared a video of herself and Dangote on a couch draped in an orange blanket fiddling with his mobile phone amidst clearly exposed buttocks.
She tagged @Iambealewis, another lady who had earlier cried out about her relationship with Dangote.
