The case in which the Managing Director of Masai Developers Limited, Mr Edward Annan has dragged Multimedia Broadcasting Limited and the presenter/host of Accra-based Joy FM?s Super Morning Show, Komla Dumor to court for defamation last Friday continued with a lot of heat.

One observation that stirred the interest of the discerning public and the media present in court was the presence of Ms. Amina Rawlings, one of the three daughters of former President Rawlings. This was the third time Amina Rawlings was attending court for the hearing of the said case since the case was listed for hearing at the Fast Track Court 2.

Though Eddie Annan is a known friend of the Rawlingses, tongues are already wagging as to the keen interest being shown in the case by the Rawlings kid.

Already, Accra is awash with reasons why the Rawlings kid is sitting in that particular case and some of the reasons being proffered point to interesting revelations that may yet reveal a lot more than most people know.

Regarding the case itself, the Managing Director of Masai, Mr Eddie Annan gave his evidence-in-chief and was led by Mr Tony Lithur, an Accra legal practitioner. Mr Eddie Annan told the Accra Fast Track High Court presided over by Her Lordship, Mrs Justice Avril Anning Yeboah that in view of the broadcast by Joy FM of certain reports investigated by Komla Dumor he was placed in a very bad light and rendered suspicious such that he ended up losing all his jobs running into several millions of cedis, dollars and pounds sterling.

He said the broadcast of the investigative stories immediately led to the termination of a contract between his company and a foreign counterpart his company represented in some business interests in the country. He tendered in evidence, a letter instructing him to hand over all documents bearing the contents of the agreement of the representation and the subsequent warning not to use the name of the company in any business transaction to the court to support his claim.
