The Tema High Court dismissed Agradaa's application to strike out a defamation lawsuit filed by the gospel musician against her. The court ruled that the application lacked merit and that the case against the former priestess needed to proceed.
The court has awarded a cost of GH₵6,000 to Empress Gifty for what it described as undue delay caused by Agradaa's legal team.
Subsequently, the gospel musician filed a new lawsuit against Agradaa, following her alleged claims that the Watch Me hitmaker was HIV positive, a statement deemed defamatory by the musician.
