In a series of fiery posts shared on Snapchat by @diiadem, the former reality TV star accused her ex-best friend Dabota Lawson of engaging in a romantic affair with a married man. She further alleged that Lawson had previously gifted her ₦5 million for her birthday, only to demand the funds back after their fallout.
The public confrontation triggered a intense exchange across social platforms as both socialites released personal messages and counter-allegations. Diiadem maintained that her former friend targeted her out of jealousy and personal grievances.
Lawson promptly fired back with an 11-slide response addressing the accusations and defending her reputation. She claimed that Diiadem was distorting the facts regarding their private interactions and financial dealings.
Reporting on the viral fallout, entertainment hub Naija News confirmed that “Diiadem fired back at Dabota Lawson as she confirms affair with married man, accuses ex-friend of wanting him too”. Additionally, prominent blogging outlet Stella Dimoko Korkus reported that “Diiadem reveals former bestie Dabota Lawson sent her N5million and took it back”.
This fallout highlights the volatile nature of public friendships in the influencer economy, where personal spats rapidly transform into brand-damaging PR crises. Watch for potential legal notices or brand endorsement drops if the public call-outs continue to spill confidential details.
