She said D’banj, whose full name is Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo barged into her hotel room on 30 December 2018.

In her words: “D’banj gained access into my hotel room at past midnight while I was asleep. He violated and raped me”.

In a bombshell press statement, Seyitan said she filed the criminal complaint at the Gender Desk of Lagos Police Command Headquarters in Ikeja on 22 June.

She said the complaint was filed after she tried unsuccessfully to lodge same at the Bar Beach Police Station in Victoria Island on 6 June.

Seyitan said the attempt was thwarted by a police officer.
