Decorated Ghanaian musician Okyeame Kwame has stated that his action against veteran Highlife musician Gyedu Ambolley is still valid.
Okyeame Kwame said due to the lockdown process where slow in court but he had not let the matter go.
He stated;
“It took a while to get a court to take the case and when we did, the bailiffs looked for him to serve him the writ but they couldn’t get to him.
“Eventually, I sent him the writ on Whatsapp and informed him that the bailiffs were looking for him. The bailiffs spoke to him and he said he was out of town and would return at the weekend so he could be served the following Monday.
“Unfortunately, that Monday was when the lockdown came into effect so he was not served, but we will surely go to court after the lockdown,”
Okyeame Kwame said that the suit was not about money but he just wanted the truth to be told.
“I want a court to get him to retract what he said because what he said was totally false. I don’t want any money from him or anything, I just want the court to get him to apologise.
“He might just pay some money for my lawyer’s fees and other costs, but I just want the truth to be out there,”
In an interview, Ambolley made some allegations that Okyeame Kwame, along with current acting President of the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA), Bessa Simons, Ben Brako and TiC, received GH¢50,000 each as a loan from former MUSIGA President Bice Osei Kuffuor (Obour) but failed to pay back.
Claiming the money was taken out of the GH¢2 million government gave to MUSIGA in 2012
And had evidence to back his allegations.
