It is not over! – 'Side chick' reacts after court throws out her sexual harassment case
Deborah Seyram Adablah, the National Service Personnel who sued a senior-level banker, Ernest Kwasi Nimako, for sexual harassment, has reacted to the court's decision to throw out her case.
An Accra High Court on Tuesday, November 28, 2023, reportedly threw out a court suit initiated by Seyram Adablah against Ernest Kwasi Nimako, whom she refers to as her “sugar daddy”.
According to a report by mynewsgh.com, the court, in striking out the case, agreed with lawyers for Ernest Kwasi Nimako that the case lacked merit and fined her GH¢10,000.
The lawyers for Kwasi Nimako argued before the court that Deborah Seyram Dablah, the ‘side chick’ did not disclose any reasonable cause of action and that “the contract she was seeking to enforce, if at all, was a legal contract.”
In striking out the case, the court agreed with the counsels for Kwasi Nimako that no substantive issue was raised by Deborah Seyram Adablah in her suit.
Reacting to this in a post shared on social media, Deborah Seyram Adablah said that the case was not over.
According to graphiconline.com, Seyram stated in the post on her Tiktok page, that the judge, who presided over the case, erred in his judgement; adding that her lawyer would file for an appeal.
“A young male journalist approached me today and asked what I had to say to the ruling. You guys were equally in court Was that the right thing for the judge Justice John Bosco Nabarese to do?
“Well, my counsel will apply for the ruling and apply the law accordingly. The case is not over! Absolutely nobody is above the law,” she wrote.
