Kwasi Aboagye, Shatta Wale and Afia Schwarzenegger
The High Court in Accra has granted an injunction restraining musician Shatta Wale and media personality Afia Schwarzenegger from making any further defamatory comments about broadcast journalist Kwasi Aboagye.
The court ruling followed their failure to enter appearance after being duly served through substituted service, as ordered by the court. Lawyers for Kwasi Aboagye successfully applied for default judgment.
The case arose from a TikTok live session on May 6, 2024, during which the two allegedly made damaging claims accusing the Peace FM presenter of criminal conduct, impotence and infidelity.
The comments spread rapidly across social media, attracting widespread criticism.
Kwasi Aboagye, represented by lawyer Samson Lardy Anyenini, filed the suit in late 2024 after the defendants allegedly refused to retract or apologise, instead daring him to go to court.
He is seeking GH¢8 million in damages. On October 15, 2025, the court granted a perpetual injunction stopping Shatta Wale and Afia Schwarzenegger from publishing further defamatory statements. The case now moves to the damages stage, where the court will assess compensation for reputational harm.
