NSC CHAIRMAN HIGHLIGHTS IMPORTANCE OF PARA ATHLETES IN NIGERIAN SPORTS AS FIRST LADY DECLARES 3RD NATIONAL PARA GAMES CLOSED
Jay-Z has broken his silence regarding the sexual assault lawsuit filed against him in December 2024, which was dismissed two months later. The hip-hop mogul, whose real name is Shawn Carter, described the case as emotionally devastating, leaving him both “heartbroken” and “angry,” and explained why he refused to accept a settlement. Reflecting on the period when he and Sean “Diddy” Combs were named in the civil suit, the 56-year-old said the ordeal triggered a level of misery he hadn’t experienced in years, calling the situation “really hard” and noting the intensity of his anger.
Carter expressed confidence throughout the legal battle that the claims were unfounded. The lawsuit was withdrawn after investigators found multiple inconsistencies in the accuser’s story, including conflicting testimonies and evidence placing Carter and Combs elsewhere during the alleged incident. Carter had previously called the allegations “idiotic” and “heinous in nature” and emphasized he would not be intimidated. After the civil suit was dismissed with prejudice, he filed a defamation lawsuit against the accuser and her attorneys, accusing them of acting out of greed and damaging his reputation. Carter said the experience was deeply traumatic for both him and his family, adding, “The trauma that my wife, my children, my loved ones and I have endured can never be dismissed.”
