Kennedy Agyapong has dedicated his court victory over Anas to ex-GFA boss Kwesi Nyantakyi
Member of Parliament for Assin Central, was sued by Anas for defamation after the member of parliament aired a documentary to uncover Anas as a blackmailer and an exorcist.
The Accra Hight court presided over by Justice Eric Baah dismissed the case, describing the work of the journalist as “investigative terrorism”.
In the ruling, Justice Baah said: “I find the claims by the plaintiff [Anas Aremeyaw Anas) meritless and they are hereby dismissed,”
“From the above, I find the plaintiff is a blackmailer and uses blackmail to extort money from his opponents and people he does not like.
“What the plaintiff is doing is not investigative journalism but investigative terrorism.”

Anas’ 2018 investigative piece, Number 12, led to the collapse of Kwesi Nyantakyi GFA administration.
Honourable Agyapong says Anas should apologize to kwesi Nyantakyi for defaming the ex-FA president.
“We have to be bold to speak the truth, Anas goes ahead to [allegedly] defame people and gets away,” the MP said, as quoted by TV3.
“It is only in this country that a journalist covers his face to go and give witness while Supreme Court judges are sitting there… Anas has to come out and apologise.”
“All I am saying is the victory is for Kwasi Nyantakyi.”
