Timi Dakolo Breaks Silence On DJ Timmy’s Allegation Of ‘Sexcapade’, £4,106 Debt
Nigerian gospel singer Timi Dakolo has threatened legal action against disc jockey and show promoter DJ Timmy over claims that he owes £4,106 in connection with a proposed UK tour.
The dispute began after DJ Timmy alleged on Instagram that Dakolo had promised to repay the money after requesting more time. He also threatened to expose the singer’s alleged “sexcapades” if the debt was not settled.
Responding through a letter signed by his lawyer, Dakolo described the allegations as false and defamatory.
According to the singer, the disputed amount relates to a proposed UK tour organised by DJ Timmy and Revolve Entertainment, which never took place.
Dakolo explained that the written performance agreement made the promoter solely responsible for covering production, travel, visa, accommodation, transportation, and other logistics expenses.
He maintained that he had no contractual obligation to pay a deposit or reimburse those costs.
The singer also stated that the tour was cancelled because Revolve Entertainment allegedly failed to meet the required production standards, particularly regarding sound, lighting, and technical arrangements.
Part of the letter read:
“We write on behalf of Mr. Timi Dakolo (‘Our Client’) in response to a series of false and defamatory statements published by Revolve Entertainment and its representative, Mr. Otis Ayodele Kubeyinje, popularly known as ‘Baddest DJ Timmy’, alleging that our client is indebted to Revolve Entertainment in the sum of £4,106 in respect of a proposed United Kingdom tour.
“Our Client unequivocally denies these allegations. Contrary to the narrative being circulated, the parties entered into a written Performance Agreement for the proposed UK tour.”
The letter further explained:
“Under that Agreement, Revolve Entertainment, as Promoter, expressly assumed responsibility for securing venues, providing sound, lighting and technical production, arranging local production, and bearing visa-related costs, flights, accommodation and transportation.
“The Agreement further provided that such expenses were non-recoupable and were to be borne entirely by the Promoter. The only expenses capable of recoupment were advertising and promotional costs, and only where such expenditure had first been approved by our client and his management.”
Dakolo added that the proposed tour never held because the promoter failed to meet the agreed production standards.
His legal team also accused DJ Timmy and Revolve Entertainment of defamation, harassment, cyberbullying, and blackmail through their social media posts.
The letter demanded that they:
- Immediately stop making or publishing further defamatory statements.
- Remove all posts containing the allegations and any disclosure of Dakolo’s private residential information.
- Publish a clear public retraction.
- Issue a written public apology within seven days.
- Refrain from any further acts of harassment, intimidation, or blackmail.
The letter concluded with a warning:
“Should these demands not be complied with within the time stated, our client reserves the right to pursue all remedies available to him in the appropriate courts and before the relevant law enforcement and regulatory authorities in Nigeria and the United Kingdom without further notice.”
