Dancehall artiste Charles Nii Armah Mensah, known in the entertainment industry as Shatta Wale, has filed a GH¢100 million defamation lawsuit against media personality Abubakar Ahmed, popularly called Blakk Rasta, at the High Court in Accra.

The suit follows the publication of a video on Blakk Rasta’s social media platforms, Blakk Empire Media, on December 15, 2025, titled “Shatta Wale, self-confessed king of fraud.”

In his statement of claim, Shatta Wale contends that comments made in the video are false, malicious, and calculated to damage his reputation. He noted that the video attracted widespread public attention within 24 hours of its release, recording more than 150,000 views on Facebook and over 27,000 views on YouTube, alongside thousands of comments and reactions.

According to the writ of summons, the statements allegedly portrayed the musician as a fraudster, a thief, and a morally corrupt individual, allegations he has strongly denied. He further claims that Blakk Rasta accused him of associating with known fraudsters and allowing stolen funds to be channelled through his bank accounts, assertions he describes as defamatory.

Shatta Wale argues that the publication has caused serious harm to his reputation, created distress for his family, fans, and business associates, and negatively affected his career as a public figure.

The plaintiff is asking the court to declare the statements defamatory, order the permanent removal of the video and related content from all social media platforms, and restrain Blakk Rasta from making further defamatory publications.

He is also seeking a public retraction and an unqualified apology to be published on the defendant’s social media pages, as well as full-page notices in the Daily Graphic, Ghanaian Times, and Graphic Showbiz.

In addition, Shatta Wale is claiming GH¢100 million in damages, together with costs.

Singer Wendy Shay has officially filed a complaint with the Ghana Police Service concerning allegations that she is engaged in lesbianism with a young girl she has adopted, known as Tracy Shay.

A young man, in a viral video, alleges that Wendy is acting on a spiritualist’s instructions to engage in inappropriate conduct with the minor.

Wendy is therefore urging the public to help identify the perpetrator so the person can be held accountable.

“The matter has been formally reported to the Ghana Police Service, and active investigations are underway. I have been informed that the individual behind the account has been traced to the United Arab Emirates, where he is currently employed with a construction company. Further steps are being taken through the appropriate channels to ensure he is held accountable for his actions.

“I am cooperating fully with the police and trust the investigation process to bring this matter to a swift and just resolution. I further encourage us all to continue standing against cyberbullying, online harassment, and malicious attacks on innocent people,” the statement shared on November 19, 2025, read.

Legal representatives of renowned gospel musician Evangelist Diana Asamoah also strongly refuted claims suggesting that she is a lesbian.

In a statement addressing a viral video circulating on social media, the legal team dismissed the allegations as slanderous and baseless.

The video, featuring a woman of unknown identity, insinuates that the gospel singer is involved in same-sex relationships.

According to the statement, Evangelist Diana Asamoah categorically denies the claim and maintains that she does not engage in any form of lesbianism.

Her legal representatives have challenged the individual behind the accusations to step forward and provide evidence, indicating their readiness to contest the matter in court.

"In the circumstances, we are throwing a challenge to the lady in the video to own up and justify her vile allegations so we contest her baseless claim in a court of competent jurisdiction," the statement read.

The legal team further urged the public to disregard the video should the accuser fail to substantiate her claims.

This development follows a growing trend of public figures facing unfounded allegations online, raising concerns about misinformation and defamation on social media.

A dancer and member of the DWP Academy, Lisa Quama, has addressed speculations surrounding her style of dressing, firmly stating that her fashion choices do not define her sexuality.

Despite acknowledging her tomboyish style, Lisa strongly dismissed claims that she is a lesbian, emphasizing that one's choice of clothing does not determine their sexual orientation.

“I am not a lesbian. That is a sexual narrative, but a tomboy is simply someone comfortable in male clothes. Yes! I love men with all my heart,” she clarified on The Delay Show on March 8, 2025

Lisa initially hesitated when asked whether she identified as a tomboy. However, after persistent questioning from the host, she eventually embraced the label.

“I don’t want to say yes... I will never be a boy because I am a girl. I am not dressing like a boy... You know what? I am a tomboy. I have accepted that I am a tomboy,” she admitted.

Her remarks come in response to ongoing social media discussions about her appearance, reinforcing the point that personal style should not be mistaken for one's sexuality.

Ace Ghanaian Highlife musician and actress Paulina Oduro has hit back at rumors about her sexuality, calling them baseless and absurd.

Addressing the speculation that she is a lesbian, she expressed frustration over such claims, emphasizing that her role as a mother should be enough to dismiss the allegations.

"I had an interview with Delay, and she said people say I am a lesbian," Oduro recalled during a discussion on Joy Prime on March 26, 2025. "I ended up saying they are very stupid and idiots because I have three kids and an amazing relationship with my partners."

The veteran musician, who has remained single for some time, noted that her happiness is not dependent on being in a relationship. She asserted that she is emotionally independent and does not need a romantic partner to feel fulfilled.

"I have been on my own for a while. I don't need a man or another human being to make me happy," she stated. "You can be who you want to be, but don’t label me because it is something I don’t like."

Paulina Oduro’s response comes on the back of public scrutiny regarding her relationship status, with some speculating about her sexual orientation. She expressed disappointment that people could fabricate such claims simply because she has chosen to remain single.

With a long-standing career in entertainment, Oduro has built a reputation as a bold and outspoken personality. She made it clear that she refuses to conform to societal expectations or entertain false narratives about her personal life.
