Martha Ankomah, not taking the matter lightly, filed a lawsuit through her legal representatives.
In a copy of the writ of summons sighted online, Martha seeks damages amounting to 5 million Ghana cedis for the defamatory statements made by Lilwin.
The actress is also demanding compensatory damages, citing a tarnished reputation as a consequence of the actor’s comments.
The summons specifies Lilwin’s disparaging remarks, including questioning Martha’s star power, her association with GTP, and insinuations about her personal life. The document declares these statements as defamatory and seeks redress for the harm caused to Martha’s reputation.
In response to the lawsuit, Lilwin took to his social media pages to share an old viral video featuring Asiedu Nketiah of the NDC, stating, “Any idiot can go to court.”
Lilwin added a caption, “As the final arbiter of the law, the Court is charged with ensuring the Ghanaian people the promise of equal justice under law and, thereby, also functions as guardian and interpreter of the Constitution. Movie is my Life. Long live Ghana 🇬🇭 Movie,” as his reaction to the legal action.
