Ghanaian actor Lil Win has reportedly been warned by the Accra High Court for delaying proceedings of Martha Ankomah’s ₵5 million defamation case against him.

According to GHOneTV, the court has issued a final warning to Lil Win over the delay in signing settlement terms with the aggrieved actress.

Reports indicate that the Kumawood actor was expected to appear in court on April 1 as agreed but allegedly failed to do so.

Lil Win and Martha Ankomah's dispute originated from a video published by the former over a year ago, in which he made some derogatory remarks against the actress.

Lil Win apologised shortly after but the actress who believes her reputation was harmed by the actor's words rejected the apology and sought legal redress.

She filed a case against the popular actor accusing him of defamation on February 14, 2024. In her suit, Martha Ankomah is seeking ₵5 million in damages and other reliefs.

The High Court presided over the case engaging both parties and their legal representatives in decisions hoping to reach an amicable resolution.

The court adjourned proceedings until February 25, 2025, to allow the parties sufficient time to finalise the terms of settlement.

In an interview monitored by ModernGhana after the February 25 sitting, Martha Ankomah explained that Lil Win was instructed by the judge to appear before the court on April 1, 2025, with a proper apology for approval.

Nothing was heard about the April 1st siting until reports about Lil Win's final warning over the actor's alleged delay in signing the settlement terms surfaced online.
