I’ll make you a scapegoat~ Rudeboy threatens legal action against X user over alleged defamation.

Nigerian singer Paul Okoye, better known as Rudeboy of the defunct P-Square duo, has threatened legal action against a social media user who accused him of misconduct involving a domestic worker. The controversy arose after photos from the 25th birthday celebration of his wife, Ivy Ifeoma, surfaced on X (formerly Twitter). An X user, @chubbiedivah, alleged that the singer coerced a domestic worker and implied she was underage at the time. @darkskinnedtemi — who identifies as a feminist — escalated the conversation with strongly critical remarks. The post was flagged to Rudeboy by fans, and the “Reason With Me” artist responded angrily, promising to locate and take action against the poster. He stated: “I hardly reply, but you see this one @chubbiedivah… I will find you, I will use every necessary means, power, resources and money.” “You will face the law. I will use you as an example, a scapegoat. Your only way out is to leave the surface of this earth,” Rudeboy wrote, thanking followers who alerted him. The account named in the post soon deactivated its X profile, apparently to avoid further fallout.
