Kumawood actor and comedian Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as Lilwin, has lost his attempt to halt a GH¢5 million defamation lawsuit brought against him by Ghanaian actress Martha Ankomah.
Lilwin had filed a motion seeking to dismiss or delay the proceedings, but the court ruled against his application, allowing the case to move forward.
The defamation suit stems from comments made by Lilwin in a widely circulated video, in which he allegedly made disparaging remarks about Ankomah’s career and public image.
The actress subsequently filed a legal claim, demanding GH¢5 million in damages for reputational harm.
With the court’s latest decision, the case is now set to proceed to trial, where both parties will have the opportunity to present their arguments.
The high-profile nature of the dispute has drawn significant public attention, as fans and observers await further developments in what could be a landmark defamation case in Ghana’s entertainment industry.
