Ghanaian rapper Edward Kofi Amoah, popularly known as Kofi Mole, has taken legal steps against some social media users and content creators for spreading false and damaging information about him online.
A cease-and-desist letter dated May 12, 2025, signed by the rapper’s lawyer, Barrister Worlayo D. Zowonu from Afadjato Chambers, stated that the defamatory comments falsely accused Kofi Mole of using illegal drugs and suffering from drug-related health issues.
These false allegations were made by some content creators and a social media sensation after an interview conducted by Elikem Aidam, which was later shared on TikTok and other social media platforms.
The letter rejected the claims and described them as completely untrue, baseless, and intentionally harmful to Kofi Mole’s reputation.
“The offending publications have falsely imputed to our Client the use and/or abuse of illegal narcotic substances, as well as unspecified drug-related health complications, thereby casting aspersions on his character, professionalism, and personal wellbeing.
“These statements are wholly untrue, baseless, and without lawful justification, and were made with the clear intent to injure the reputation of our Client and expose him to public ridicule, contempt, and disrepute,” the letter stated.
Kofi Mole’s legal representative is demanding that the individuals who made the defamatory statements take immediate action to correct the damage.
The demands include:
1. They must immediately cease and desist from making, publishing, sharing, or circulating any further false or defamatory statements about Kofi Mole.
2. They must delete all offending posts and publicly retract their claims using the same platforms where the false information was shared.
3. They issue a formal public apology to Kofi Mole via the same platforms they used to make the defamatory statements, to be published once weekly for a period of eight (8) consecutive weeks.
