Kumawood actor Kwadwo Nkansah, known as LilWin, has reportedly chosen to settle out of court with actress Martha Ankomah regarding the ₵5 million defamation lawsuit filed against him. GHOne shared this update on their X handle, noting that the decision was communicated to the Accra High Court on July 31, 2024, the same day the case was set to be heard following a Case Management Conference on July 25.

The court, led by Justice Forson Agyapong Baah, had previously instructed that LilWin be informed of the hearing and court documents, as he was absent and unrepresented during the last session.

The lawsuit began when Martha Ankomah took legal action after LilWin made derogatory remarks about her in a viral video. Ankomah argues that these comments not only harmed her personal reputation but also negatively impacted the GTP textile brand.

She is seeking ₵5 million in damages, including compensatory and aggravated damages, as well as an apology, a retraction of the statements, and a court order to prevent further defamatory remarks. The conflict originated from LilWin’s reaction to Ankomah’s statements on Accra FM, where she expressed interest in collaborating with Kumawood actors for their storylines. LilWin's response was filled with insults, leading to the defamation suit.
