Controversial artiste, Kwame Asare Obeng affectionately called A Plus has released venom on people threatening legal suits against him.
A Plus, in a Facebook rant, says such people are nothing but "idiots" who want to cowed him into submission with their threats.
According to him, he is not an afraid of being arraigned before court, describing himself as a "wild lion".
Communications Minister, Mrs. Ursula Owusu-Ekuful has asked for an unqualified apology from the controversial musician cum politician saying if she will proceed to court if he refuses to comply with the directive.
"We are informed that you (A Plus) have published series of defamatory statements on Facebook about our client ostensibly to tarnish her hard won reputation and to reduce her image in the eyes of right thinking members of society...We are instructed to notify you that our client takes a serious view of your defamatory publication on Facebook and would not hesitate to commence legal action against you if the said publication is not retracted on or before Friday, 1st June, 2018.
"Please be informed that if you fail to retract and apologize to our client on or before Friday, 1st June, 2018, we shall proceed to court..." a statement by her Solicitors read.
The Minister, through her Counsel "Safo and Marfo@Law", has given A Plus an ultimatum of three (3) days to "render unqualified apology in the same medium and prominence in the manner that your libelous publication was done" and retract his statements or will be dragged to court to "vindicate our client's rights without any further recourse to you".
Also, the Deputy Chief of Staff, Francis Asenso-Boakye has given A Plus seven (7) days to retract and apologize for defaming him or he too will proceed to court.
Solicitors for the Deputy Chief of Staff, A-partners @ law in a statement copied to Peacefmonline.com asked the musician to retract through the "same publicity and prominence as the defamatory claims and must be unequivocal, unconditional and subject to the prior approval of our client and his Solicitors.
"We have firm instructions to, without further notice to you and upon your failure, neglect or refusal to fully satisfy our client's demands herein, take out a suit and hold you, and such as are carelessly and maliciously repeating the false claims, liable".
But A Plus has rubbished the threats by both parties, stating emphatically that "...Any idiot can go to court!!!"
"...for those saying I've been sued, for your information I've been sued since 1999.... even Richard Annane threatened to sue me. Any idiot can go to court!!!”
“😏 😏 😏 😏 😏 😏 😏 😏 😏 😏 😏 if I appologise Nimokafui and Ayetefrem and chalabim and Salafim should kill me..." he stressed.

A-Plus is not normal. Francis, ignore him
who sued you when you called late Prof atta Mills and JDM visionless and dog law of karma indeed
The law of Kama is being played out now. Ursula take it cool and move on, you can't tell what A-Plus has under his sleeves why he is behaving that way.
Ursla Sues some one for calling her a thi.e.ve. She called JDM so and she is seeking apology. Hope God dey
I will like to advice A-Plus to be humble. Because his arrogance and pride will not get him anywhere. He thinks he has the support of the president so he can misbehave. Be humble bro.
calling JDM a ***barred word*** in 2013 on Let My Vote Count Platform is acceptable. But your own party member calls you a ***barred word*** and you go to court. Politicians indeed. Anyway, it is good you have change your public image since being appointed a minister.
See what his fat big mouth has brought him into A Plus you are not an angel wai, you can't accused people and insults them and go free. some people will not take it lightly and will take you on.
Madam Ursula, knows very well that she is innocence about this allegations that is why she is suing this ARR0GANT bloody F 0 0 1 . No one stop JM from suing Ursula when he alleged she as insulted him abi .
