Icon mag apologizes to 2face over pregnancy story after he sued for N100m

Weeks after 2face Idibia slammed a N100million lawsuit against soft-sell magazine, Icon Weekly, after they published a story claiming he had cheated on his wife and impregnated a banker, (read here) the magazine has apologized to the singer and have withdrawn their story, accepting that it was a false publication.

With this, the suit will most likely be struck out as 2face is said to have accepted the apology. Read the apology after the cut...

Posting stories without thorough verification are becoming the bane of most Nigerian reporters!

Ceeflo said...

I guess the lawsuit was their wake up call.. Getting women pregnant was obviously his cryptonite a few years back buh I think he has changed

Heheheheh!!!
I bet others will want this mag to report a false news about them too..

Chikaka said...

If everyone sued for a false story these tabloids would go out of circulation. They need to be careful. Fair play to Tuface.

"Signed by Managing Editor" Does the Managing Editor not have a name? Pls educate me. Is a name not supposed to be attached to the position he holds? 2baba abeg no free dem. Media don too carry false stories to tarnish peoples image. e don too much 4 dem.

2 baba, Abeg this people need to pay you for their stupidity, next time them no go print wetin no be true. For all I know, there's no miss information from anybody anywhere, the editor and the entire team did it on purpose, reason " Want to Sell" so tarnishing or staining the image of a celeb is what can bring fast cash and big sales. Everybody want to read the flops of every celebs and to use it to judge them. So I say this Icon Mag, knows what they did, for this reason 2baba, sue them please.
