Joyce Bawah and her legal team claimed that the remarks were false and asked Abronye to apologise to her or pay a huge sum of money in damages.

"The statements have caused serious embarrassment and damage to the image and reputation of Mrs Bawah. The comments have also attracted various comments from the general public, most of which have been disparaging to our client's reputation and image and have exposed our client to public ridicule and contempt," the legal statement read.
