Filmmaker Leila Djansi demands retraction and apology from actress Kafui Danku

Lawyers of filmmaker, Leila Djansi, has issued a letter to actress Kafui Danku over “defamatory” comments she made about her some days ago.

According to actress Danku, Miss Djansi is badmouthing her to some colleagues in the entertainment industry because she asked for her help and she couldn’t give.

Taking to her Facebook page, Miss Danku wrote:

You later came back to ask me for thousands of dollars which I didn’t give you so you went round telling people st*pid and childish lies…

I want them to know that your st*pid blabbing is all about the fact that I didn’t give you what you asked for. If anybody has warned you to be careful of Leila Djansi, believe them!

Meanwhile, Miss Danku later issued an apology: I regret posting on social media and this would not happen again. I will make efforts to resolve the differences… I would appreciate people who shared to kindly delete or take down the post since it was as a result of anger. I wish I could turn back the hands of time. I APOLOGIZE.

But, lawyers for Miss Djansi said the actress deleting the post of apology is uncalled for.

She has also been instructed to cause the retraction of the said words from all third party media outlets and blogs which have published same and also cause the said apology to have published and circulated, particularly on your Facebook wall with the same prominence as was given the defamatory words, by the close of 23^rd of July, 2020.
