Asawase MP Mohammed Muntaka Mubarak has filed a lawsuit against 11 NDC branch executives in his constituency for spreading defamatory remarks about him.
The remarks were circulated through various media outlets and deemed to be libelous against the MP.
Mubarak is seeking GH¢10 million in damages from the defendants.
A Kumasi High Court has ordered the defendants and any other media organizations that published the defamatory material to retract the comments and issue an unqualified apology in a national newspaper.
The NDC members responsible for the defamatory remarks issued a press statement on March 10, 2023, which led to the lawsuit.
