Ntim Fordjour’s lawyers demand apology from Angel Maxine over alleged defamatory claims
Lawyers for Assin South Member of Parliament, John Ntim Fordjour, have demanded a retraction and apology over what they describe as defamatory statements circulated on social media by Angel Maxine.
In a letter dated April 27, 2026, the law firm Nkrumah and Associates, acting on behalf of the MP, accused Angel Maxine of publishing and spreading false claims about their client on digital platforms including Instagram, TikTok and X.
The lawyers stated that the claims, which allege that the MP is gay and had a sexual relationship with the individual, are false and without any factual basis.
They stressed that their client does not know the individual and has never met, communicated or had any form of relationship with them.
According to the lawyers, the statements have exposed the MP to public ridicule and caused damage to his personal and professional reputation.
They added that the content was widely circulated across multiple platforms, increasing the extent of the alleged harm.
The legal team has therefore demanded that Angel Maxine immediately stop making any further statements about the MP.
They called for an unconditional retraction of the claims and an unqualified apology.
The lawyers warned that failure to comply within seven days from April 27, 2026, will lead to legal action being taken against the individual.

A prominent member of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) has broken silence on the deep-seated internal machinations within the party, warning that the continuous victimization of members could severely jeopardize unity ahead of the general elections.
In a post on the party’s internal democratic processes, the former National Entrpreneurship and Innovation Programme (NEIP) boss, Kofi Ofosu Nkansah revealed how personal ambitions were stifled by party elites in the Asante Akyem Central constituency, despite overwhelming grassroots support.
According to the aggrieved party member, the decision to run for the parliamentary seat was not a self-serving agenda but a direct response to a call to service by the local constituents.
“My Asante Akyem Central people loved my politics and approached me to come and serve them as MP,” he stated.
He added that “But my own party elders blocked me and supported the incumbent MP to cheat through the system as if I was an outsider.”
The unfair playing field he revealed led to a massive financial distress. The stalwart disclosed incurring massive debts across two consecutive primary election cycles, alongside other personal challenges.
Despite the systemic sabotage, Kofi Ofosu Nkansah noted that he remained loyal, continuously defending both the NPP party and the government’s policies at all levels.
“Seeing what’s going on in the current polling station elections in several constituencies, it seems not much has changed,” he warned.
“The victimization of those who want to challenge current or former MPs should stop,” he stated.
With the general elections approaching, he cautioned,”You don’t treat party people anyhow and expect unconditional unity for the general elections.”
