Background of the case

The case stemmed from a defamation suit filed by Martha Ankomah on February 14, 2024, against Lil Win following alleged disparaging remarks he made about her in a viral video. In the video, Lil Win allegedly showered insults on the actress and downplayed her significance in the Kumawood industry, provoking a backlash.

In her lawsuit, Martha is demanding GH¢5 million in damages and compensatory and aggravated damages for damaging her reputation. She is also seeking a court order requiring Lil Win to publish a formal apology and retract the defamatory comments with the same level of prominence.

Lil Win and his lawyers have since entered an appearance in court, with both parties exploring an out-of-court settlement.
