The Member of Parliament for South Dayi, , has initiated legal action against his colleague, the Member of Parliament for Assin South, Rev John Ntim Fordjour, seeking compensatory damages for what he describes as defamatory statements made against his person.
According to asaaseradio.com, the lawsuit and the reliefs being sought stem from allegations by Dafeamekpor that his colleague, Ntim Fordjour, falsely implied that he, in his capacity as Vice Chairman of the Committee on Subsidiary Legislation, was involved in a bribery scandal concerning a payment of GH¢360,000 to the committee for the passage of a Legislative Instrument (LI).
The post, which was made on X, further alleged that the committee misappropriated GH¢49 million, prompting widespread calls for an investigation.
However, the NDC lawmaker, who also serves as the Chief Whip of the Majority in Parliament, has dismissed the allegations as baseless, malicious, and injurious to his reputation.
