A popular Nollywood Actress cum politician, Tonto Dikeh and her bodyguard, Gbenga, have been summoned by the Chief Magistrate’s Court, Wuse Zone 6, for alleged assault and criminal trespass.

In the court summons dated August 6, 2024, the two defendants were ordered to appear before the court on August 24, 2024, to answer the charges against them.

The suit, with case number CR/359/2024, obtained by Punch, was filed by the Chief Executive of Skyewise Group Limited, Elvis Abuyere, the owner of an Abuja-based car dealership company.

Abuyere stated that in January, Tonto approached the car company to purchase a brand-new Changan Uni-K 2023 model from Mikano Motors.

The complainant, who was reported to have a dealership relationship with Mikano, subsequently paid N85 million as full payment for the car to Mikano, agreeing that Dikeh would pay the balance in instalments within three months of receiving the car.

Tonto reportedly made her first deposit for the used 2008/2009 Lexus, worth N37 million and an additional payment of N3.5 million.

However, the movie star failed to settle the balance by the end of April, at the expiration of the payment window, thereby breaching the agreement.

On May 1, Abuyere retrieved the car from Dikeh after efforts to collect the balance proved futile. Dikeh later paid N20 million, N17 million, and N5 million, leaving an outstanding balance of N2.1 million.

On July 30, the actress contacted the car company to have the car serviced, and it was taken for maintenance. Upon completion of the repairs, the car company demanded the remaining N2.1 million from her.

However, she was reported to have forcefully entered the business premises of the complainant in Maitama, Abuja, alongside her bodyguard and two ladies, thereby committing “criminal trespass.”

Tonto Dike is also accused of assaulting the complainant and some staff members of his company.

The four individuals disrupted business operations at the car company, damaged property, and threatened to use social media to harm the complainant’s business.
