In a significant development that marks the resolution of a highly publicised controversy, Coach Nancy Nnadi, the Managing Director of EeZee Conceptz Limited, has publicly retracted her earlier defamatory statements against award-winning gospel music minister, Mercy Chinwo Blessed.
The retraction was made public on Sunday via Coach Nancy’s official Instagram page, where she acknowledged her prior missteps and expressed a desire for peace and spiritual reconciliation.
“On the advice of my lawyer, and for the sake of peace and love of God, I retract my earlier post about Minister Mercy Chinwo as well as pray Almighty God to perfect the ongoing settlement by THE FATHERS OF FAITH between her and EeZee Conceptz,” she stated.
The retraction comes months after Mercy Chinwo, through her legal counsel at Law Corridor, led by the Managing Partner, Pelumi Olajengbesi, filed a defamation suit against her at the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
The lawsuit accused Coach Nancy of spreading false and damaging allegations on social media, including claims that Chinwo had diverted funds in connection with an ongoing contractual dispute involving EeZee Conceptz and its founder, Ezekiel Onyedikachukwu, popularly known as EeZee Tee.
The legal action sought a public apology, deletion of the defamatory content, and compensation for the reputational damage caused. In response, Mercy Chinwo’s legal team presented verified documentation—including contracts, email correspondence, and payment receipts—that firmly refuted the claims and upheld her integrity.
Following the developments, Coach Nancy’s legal representatives initiated settlement discussions. A formal agreement was reached, which included the immediate removal of the defamatory video posted on February 4, 2025, a public retraction, and a commitment to refrain from making any further disparaging remarks.
All terms of the settlement have now been fully complied with by Coach Nancy.
In an official response, Mercy Chinwo’s legal team commended her for handling the issue with “grace, professionalism, and spiritual maturity.” The statement also highlighted that this outcome not only vindicates Mercy Chinwo’s name but reaffirms her character as a minister who chose truth over noise, and justice over vengeance.
The resolution was facilitated by the intervention of respected clerics, whose leadership and spiritual guidance helped steer the situation toward peaceful settlement.
This outcome is not just a legal victory, but a testament to the power of accountability, humility, and the unifying role of faith within the gospel community.
