The Member of Parliament (MP) for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has welcomed the lawsuits filed against him by the Former New Patriotic Party (NPP) Chairman Freddie Blay and his son, Kwame Blay, for defamatory publications.
In a social media post, the North Tongu MP described the suit as ‘better late than never.’
While Kwame Blay’s lawsuit is solely against the North Tongu MP, Freddie Blay’s suit also names Media General and Johnnie Hughes as defendants.
Mr Ablakwa in a Facebook post on Monday indicated that though he was yet to be served, the filing of the lawsuits was great news.
He underscored that justice did not belong to those who first sought refuge in the court.
“They say better late than never — even though I am yet to be served, this is great news after many weeks of countless threats. The battle to reclaim Labadi Beach Hotel’s beachfront just got exciting.
“Justice does not always belong to those who are first to seek refuge in the courts — if you doubt this, ask the double identity champion. No matter the intimidation theatrics, State Capture shall surely be defeated! For God and Country. Ghana First ????????,” he stated.
