Ghanaian actress Martha Ankomah has agreed to an out-of-court settlement in her defamation case against actor Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as Lil Win.
The trial of the defamation case was scheduled to begin on July 31 at the High Court in Accra, but lawyers for the plaintiff announced a new development in the case prior to the hearing.
Accra-based Starr FM reports that Martha Ankomah’s legal team, led by Nii Apatu Plange, informed the court that a settlement had been reached between the plaintiff and the defendant.
This prompted a brief adjournment by the court to finalise the agreement.
“There has been some development. We were supposed to start the trial today, (Wednesday, July 31). Unfortunately, some development has come up, and I pray that my client and I approach the bench,” he submitted.
The presiding judge, Justice Forson Agyapong Baah acknowledged the development and adjourned the case to August 15, 2024, to formalise the settlement.
