The Queens Bench Division of the UK High Court Justice has released the damages it earlier ordered a blogger, Maureen Badejo, to pay to Dr. Daniel Olukoya, founder and General Overseer, Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries (MFM) and his wife, Folashade.
In the document released by Dr. Olukoya’s spokesman, Collins Edomaruse, the court ordered the blogger to one hundred thousand pounds sterling £100,000 to the couple as damages for the series of defamatory publications the blogger published against them.
In awarding the judgment and damages, the Court said it recognised the intense, malicious and relentless campaign waged by Maureen against the Olukoyas with whom she had no previous acquaintance or even the opportunity of a chance meeting.
Recall also that the court had earlier granted an order of injunction restraining Badejo from broadcasting further defamatory matters against the couple and adjourned to take evidence on the questions of defamation, damages and ancillary reliefs.
