The Member of Parliament for Manhyia South, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, says he has filed a Writ of Summons against the Member of Parliament for Akwatia, Bernard Bediako Baidoo, and broadcaster Abubakar Alhassan, popularly known as Blakk Rasta, over what he describes as false statements made against him.
In a statement dated Monday, September 28, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah said the legal action was filed against the two individuals for allegedly “spewing falsehoods” about his person.
“I have today, 28th September 2026, filed a Writ of Summons against the underlisted persons for spewing falsehoods against my person,” he stated.
“Unlike the government, I have chosen the path of democrats, by seeking relief through civil court rather than pursuing criminal prosecution for the publication of false news,” he said.
His decision to go to court comes amid a wider dispute surrounding the alleged detention of Madam Salomey Awiti Baffoe and Camilla Alhassan.
He alleged that Salomey Baffoe was “kidnapped by state security agents” in the late hours of Saturday and remains in police custody.
Baffour Awuah maintained that the alleged intimidation would not deter him from pursuing the matter.
“The above having been said, I wish to state that the attempt by the government to intimidate and silence me in my quest to fight for the poor mother of three (3) minor children who was kidnapped by state security agents… and remains in police custody has failed.”
The MP said his focus remains on securing the release of the two women and facilitating their reunion with their families.
