Black Sherif defeats ex-manager in court
Previously, YEN.com.gh reported that Black Sherif landed a massive win over his former manager, Shadrach Owusu Agyei, marking a significant development in their four-year legal battle.
The case stemmed from a 2022 legal filing by Shadrach, who sued Black Sherif for alleged breach of contract after he signed a major deal with Empire Music Africa, seeking a court injunction to stop his former client and his associates from performing at events or entering into agreements to perform at events without recourse to him.
In a January 16, 2026, ruling, Her Ladyship Justice Afia Adu-Amankwa ruled in favour of Black Sherif in the court case and dismissed most of the reliefs sought by his former representative.
