The legal dispute emerged over a Snapchat post that allegedly linked Accra Mayor to an anonymous social media account that made a serious allegation about Gisela Amposah's personal life.
In a letter dated June 2, 2026, the lawyers of the plaintiff claimed Gisela shared Kelvin's photograph on her Snapchat story and asked followers to provide information about him.
"Kindly share this person's full name and details with me if you have them. Thank you. I know he is called Kelly, but I need his details so he can prove in court the countless men I sleep with," her post read.
According to the letter, the post suggested that Kelvin was the person behind the X account known as "kellyagmm," which had become a topic of discussion online.
Accra Mayor's lawyer indicated in the document that his client has absolutely no connection to the account and was wrongly identified.
They argued that the publication painted Kelvin as the person responsible for comments and allegations that had been circulating on social media.
According to the lawyer, Accra Mayor reached out to clarify that while the photo used in the post was indeed his, he was not the individual operating the account in question, claiming that despite being informed, the post was not immediately pulled down.
The letter further stated that even though the Snapchat story was later deleted, the damage had already been done because many people had seen and engaged with the publication before it was removed, contending that the post exposed Accra Mayor to public criticism, embarrassment and unwanted attention.
As a result, the X influencer, through his lawyer, is demanding a public apology and retraction from Gisela Amponsah.
They claim she should openly state that Kelvin was mistakenly identified and that he had no involvement whatsoever with the X account.
The legal document also indicated that the apology should be posted with the same visibility as the original publication and remain up for at least seven days.
In addition, they want a written assurance that no further statements relating to the matter will be made about their client.
The legal dispute between the two Ghanaian influencers has triggered widespread reactions on social media.
