The Nigeria Police Force has invited Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh to its headquarters for questioning over allegations of criminal defamation, cyberbullying, forgery, and other charges.
The invitation, issued by the Inspector-General of Police Monitoring Unit, requests Dikeh’s presence for an interview to shed light on the allegations. The letter, dated August 5, states that her name features prominently in the investigation.
Force spokesperson Muyiwa Adejobi confirmed that Dikeh was invited following a petition against her. He noted that she has been released while the investigation continues, saying, “She was only invited to respond to a petition filed against her, and she has since left the unit, while the investigation continues.”
The police are urging Dikeh to cooperate with the investigation, which is ongoing. The actress’s response to the allegations is eagerly awaited as the case unfolds.
