Bulldog sues Shatta Wale for defamation
The defamation suit comes after Shatta Wale last week threatened to expose an alleged secret of Bulldog about his alleged involvement in Fennec Okyere’s death
Nana Asiamah Hanson, popularly known as Bulldog (now Bullgod) has sued dancehall artiste Shatta Wale for alleging that he has a hand in the death of Fennec Okyere, an artiste manager who was murdered in 2014.
The defamation suit comes after Shatta Wale last week threatened to expose an alleged secret of Bulldog about his alleged involvement in Okyere’s death.
Shatta Wale had put out the allegation in a social media post on Wednesday (2 November 2022).
Fennec died in 2014 in what is a murder case the police are yet to resolve.
It had been added to one of the cold cases of the Ghana Police Service until Shatta Wale’s comment revived it in the public domain last week.
Bulldog in a writ filed on Monday (7 November) argues that Shatta Wale had repeatedly gone public with claims damaging his reputation and connecting him to the murder of Okyere.
Bulldog is therefore seeking a court order for Shatta Wale to retract his “defamatory” statements and apologise without reservation for eight days.
He is also requesting special and punitive damages against his former artiste for the publication.
