Popular married dancer, Jane Mena, through her lawyers decided to take up the case between actress Tonto and herself. She demanded for the sum of N500 million and a public apology from Tonto. According to her, claims that she slept with Kpokpogri were false and there was no way he could have her intimate unclad tapes.
