• Yaw Dabo and Oboy Siki have settled their defamation lawsuit out of court after a brief legal dispute
• In a video, Oboy Siki retracted claims and apologised for derogatory remarks aimed at Yaw Dabo
• The resolution between the actors followed the Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr Frank Amoakohene's intervention

Kumwood actors Yaw Dabo and Oboy Siki, also known as Dada Santo, have reportedly settled their recent defamation suit out of court.

Yaw Dabo recently sued Oboy Siki after the latter made what he deemed to be defamatory against his person.

The alleged derogatory remarks were made by Oboy Siki during an interview with Ghpage, where he questioned his colleagues' role in football management as well as his bedroom life, alleging that Yaw Dabo was battling infertility and could not give birth.

The veteran actor claimed Yaw Dabo had also insulted President John Dramani Mahama.

Not pleased by the attack on his personality, Dabo filed the defamation suit against Oboy Siki, demanding GH₵1 million in damages.

On February 23, 2026, Dabo and Oboy Siki made their first appearance in court. A couple of videos that went viral saw the duo with some Kumawood stars, including Sumsum Ahuofe, at the High Court in Kumasi as the legal proceedings unfolded.

It later emerged that the court had adjourned for the parties to discuss a possible out-of-court settlement.

Less than 48 hours later, Dabo has agreed to withdraw the suit against Oboy Siki, after the Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr Frank Amoakohene, intervened.

In a video that emerged after they met with Dr Amoakohene, the two explained that they were no longer going to pursue the court case.

Oboy Siki retracted his claims against Yaw Dabo and apologised unreservedly for any inconvenience caused him.

According to him, while he knows Dabo owns a football, which he often seeks his advice on and also has a girlfriend, he had never heard the diminutive actor speak against President Mahama before.

He explained that he only made those allegations because he wanted to create a social media banter with Dabo, and since the latter was not interested, he had withdrawn every statement.

"I have already apologised to Dabo before Frank [Dr Amoakohene], but let me state it here that all I said was not true and was said out of anger," he told bloggers present.

Moments after addressing bloggers, he approached Dabo, shook his hand, and asked him to confirm if he had forgiven him.

Dabo confirmed he had forgiven him and that everything had been settled through the intervention of the regional minister and other prominent people who called him earlier.
