Mayowa Lambe Under Scrutiny as Lawyer Alerts US Embassy Over Alleged Marriage Fraud for Passport
A new legal battle is unfolding for media personality Mayowa Lambe, as a U.S.-based lawyer, Bolanle Cole, has announced plans to petition the U.S. Embassy concerning allegations of a fake marriage intended to secure immigration benefits. This development comes amidst an ongoing dispute between Lambe and her estranged husband, Roby Ekpo. Lawyer Cole has offered to represent Ekpo pro bono in a N100 million defamation suit filed by Lambe. Cole stated that the legal team is challenging the validity of Lambe's recent marriage, asserting that her union with Ekpo, under Nigerian law, still subsists. This legal move by Cole could have significant implications, potentially extending beyond Nigerian borders and involving U.S. immigration authorities. The controversy also involves fresh allegations from a U.S.-based woman who claims Lambe contributed to the breakdown of her marriage while Lambe was still married in Nigeria. This woman alleges that Lambe's ex-husband, Yusuf Fatai, may have assisted Lambe's move to the U.S. after obtaining his own citizenship through marriage. Fatai is accused of a history involving visa applications for others and falsified documents. Meanwhile, Mayowa Lambe has reportedly remained unbothered by the escalating dispute, sharing videos of herself dancing amidst the controversies. She had previously issued a cease-and-desist notice to Roby Ekpo, demanding N100 million in damages for alleged defamatory statements made about their decade-long marriage. Ekpo's legal team has denied these allegations, stating that any statements made were based on personal experiences and evidence that contradicts Lambe's assertions.
