Lawyers of Shatta Wale asked to file terms of settlement in legal dispute with Bullgod at the end of the month

An Accra High Court has adjourned the lawsuit involving Nii Charles Armah Mensah, popularly known as Shatta Wale and his former manager, Bullgod to June 27, 2023.

Shatta Wale’s lawyers requested the adjournment to allow them to file the terms of the settlement.

During the court hearing, Mr Frank Atese Kwabena, counsel for Shatta Wale, informed the court that progress had been made in reaching a settlement.

As a result, the court granted the request for a two-week adjournment to facilitate filing the settlement terms.

The lawsuit was filed in response to Shatta Wale’s claims that Bullgod, his former manager, was involved in the murder of Fennec Okyere, the manager of Kwaw Kese.

Shatta Wale made these allegations through a Facebook post on November 2, 2022.

During a previous court hearing, Shatta Wale’s lawyers requested to settle the case outside of court, a request that was granted by the Accra High Court.

Following this, Shatta Wale’s legal team returned to court after a month and informed the judge that the parties had reached an initial agreement on the terms of the settlement in a significant development.

Subsequently, Shatta Wale’s lawyers requested a one-month adjournment to allow the parties to draft the terms of the settlement. The intention was for the agreed-upon terms to be presented to the court as a consent judgement.

The Accra High Court presided over by Justice Joseph Adu Agyemang Owusu, adjourned the case after Bulldog’s lawyers confirmed that settlement terms had been reached in principle.

An earlier report indicated that one of the conditions of the settlement includes a public apology to Bulldog.

The resolution of this lawsuit through an out-of-court settlement marks a significant step towards resolving the dispute between Shatta Wale and Bulldog.

The public apology, among other agreed-upon terms, aims to address the grievances raised during the legal proceedings.

Lawyers of the Plaintiff and Defendant will now focus on finalizing the settlement terms and ensuring that both Shatta Wale and Bulldog can move forward in a positive direction.
