Former Ghana Football Association(GFA) Boss Kwesi Nyantakyi has sued Anas Aremeyaw Anas and Tiger Eye PI for defamation.
The embattled former GFA Boss is seeking a declaration that the visual images of him[Kwesi Nyantakyi] receiving money contained in defendants (Anas Aremeyaw Anas) investigative piece titled #No. 12 shown to the public on the 6th day of June 20 18 at the Accra International Conference Centre ( AICC) is defamatory.
He’s thus seeking punitive damages against defendants for defamation. Additionally, he is praying the court for a Perpetual injunction restraining the defendants from further publishing the video or premiering it.
#Number 12
On June 6, 2018, the Tiger Eye PI premiered the Anas’s investigative video titled Number 12 at the Accra International Conference Centre which centered on the rot in Ghana football.
In a secret recording, the video captured over a hundred football officials including referees and match commissioners receiving bribes to compromise their fairness in soccer matches.
The embattled former President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) Kwesi Nyantakyi who’s currently being investigated by the Criminal Investigations Department of the Police Service for using President Akufo Addo’s name for influence peddling stated that the President is open to pocketing a $5 million bribe, claiming Akufo-Addo sold most of his property to finance the 2016 election and as such was broke.
Nyantakyi said he had been reliably informed by Anthony Karbo, the deputy roads and highways minister, that given Akufo-Addo’s dire financial situation, he would greatly appreciate a $5 million dollar “gift” and in turn approve lucrative contracts for Nyantakyi and his team.

Let's all remember that there is a day of reckoning because Galatians 6:7 says "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap" I still remember that "co-efficient of Seven" statement made by KN making a mockery of our judicial system
Nyantakyi is corrupt... At the Brazil 2014 world cup, he was approached by some under cover foreign journalists who brought a fake document to him to see his reaction...... He showed interest working with the said fake company. Now his cup is full and true colour is known to the whole world. He is very greedy. This legal battle with Anas will go nowhere. Go and ask that judge who received goat as a bribe..... If I were you I will rather keep quiet and pray that this matter will go away. The death of John Ford Mahama's vice may help in that direction. I know it was so painful for Nyantakyi to miss the Russia world cup and missing out on all the personal benefits......................
All of a sudden this voraciously greedy f00l has got courage because of the trashy ,cheap expose shown by that illiterate MP.Go ahead and sue.You have no shame. In this country villains are made the heroes and the patriotic ones the villains.Who does not know that Nyantakyie is a very corrupt individual?
'Yaye abre"! Who hasn't sued Anas before after expose? What happened to their suits? Nyantekye is only doing something to wipe his SHAME, but it will not wash, CORRUPT man, Nyantekyi!
If indeed the money given to him was not a bribe, and it has been presented as such, then he has ever right to sue. Please you might not like the man, and his ways may be shady but the fact Mr. A stole a chicken does nit mean he should be branded a "goat stealer" when he has not stolen any goat
When he came before the world cup committee and he threw the word co-efficient at them, i watched in disgust as most members on the committee laughed away the corrupt explanation. i was sad for Ghana and prayed a day will come when all men the likes of Nyantakyi will pay dearly for raping mother Ghana of her riches and her youth. Now the chicken is coming home to roost.... infact the man is so used to these behavior that he dares challenges in court even in the face of video evidence. I weep for Ghana.
This case will go no where..... Nyantakyi is corrupt and greedy.
Bring it on ... corrupt kwesi nyantakyi. After all, any I-D-I-O-T can go to court. LOOOOLX.
Infact, you are mad? Do you think this rubbish Anas video is fair? Go on Kwesi.. discerning Ghanaians understand you..
U r MAD!!!
