Martha Ankomah sues Kwadwo Nkansah, a.k.a. Lil Win Regarding Supposedly Defamatory Remarks
Ghanaian actress, Martha Ankomah has taken legal action against her colleague, Kwadwo Nkansah, widely known as LilWin, following recent remarks he made about her.
Martha Ankomah, Ghanaian actress, has sued famed Kumawood actor Kwadwo Nkansah, also known as Lil Win, for allegedly uttering slurs about her.
In a viral video, Lil Win was heard scolding the actress for allegedly telling one of the Kumawood directors, Frank Fiifi Gharbin, that she will not work with any of the Kumawood stars because they make ridiculous movies.
In the video, a frustrated Lil Win could be heard disparaging and downplaying Martha’s reputation in the movie business.
He also questioned Martha’s role as a brand ambassador for GTP, wondering why celebrities like Mercy Asiedu and McBrown were not included. Lilwin expressed amazement at Martha’s said remarks and conjectured about her mental condition at the time of the incident.
“Martha, those who are richer than you are rather humble and respect themselves a lot. Do you honestly call yourself a star? Who knows you? What do you have? “I don’t even know why GTP bypassed the likes of McBrown, Mercy Asiedu and co, and made Martha Ankomah their brand ambassador. The likes of Van Vicker, Roselyn Ngissah and co, do not do these things. They even work with us. They shoot Kumawood movies. I’m still amazed that you made such statements, were you drunk?”
LilWin proceeded with his outburst, citing examples of well-known Nigerian actresses working with the Kumawood business and comparing them to actors he believed to be reluctant, such as Martha Ankomah.
“Patience Ozorkwor came to Kumasi to shoot a movie. Aki and Pawpaw, Mr. Ibu and the rest came down to shoot a movie here. But for people like you, who call yourselves refined actors; how many times do these Nigerians come to Ghana to shoot movies? They are the ones who rather send for you guys.”
