Margaret Mary Twum, legal counsel for actor Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as LilWin, has revealed that Ghanaian actress, Martha Ankomah has forgiven the actor following derogatory comments made in a viral video.
In a statement, the lawyer emphasized that Ankomah’s decision to forgive LilWin reflects her strong personal values and commitment to reconciliation.
She indicated that despite the harm caused by the controversial remarks, Martha Ankomah’s response demonstrates a deep understanding of the significance of forgiveness in both personal and professional settings.
“We are grateful to God for enabling Martha to extend forgiveness to Lilwin. She is a kind and God-fearing woman who believes in the power of mercy. As she puts it, she cannot refuse to forgive when her neighbor wrongs her, for the God she serves is merciful, and she strives to mirror that compassion in her own life,” She added.
Earlier this year, a video showed LilWin criticizing Martha Ankomah, accusing her of allegedly telling Kumawood director Frank Fiifi Gharbin that she would no longer collaborate with Kumawood stars due to their “nonsensical” movie productions.
In the video, LilWin also downplayed Martha Ankomah’s contributions to the Kumawood film industry, sparking controversy among fans and stakeholders.
Earlier this year, Martha Ankomah filed a defamatory suit at the Accra High Court, demanding GH¢5 million in damages, along with an apology and a public retraction of the statements made by LilWin.
The case, which was filed on February 14, also requested that the retraction be made with equal prominence as the original defamatory remarks.
