Michy Drags Shatta Wale To Juvenile And Family Court Over Majesty’s Maintenance
Ghanaian dancehall artiste, Charles Nii Armah Mensah, popularly known as Shatta Wale, has been summoned to appear before the Family and Juvenile Court in Accra on January 10, 2024.
This is on the back of a hearing notice posted on the Family and Juvenile Notice Board in Accra, dated December 21, 2023.
The court issued an order for Substituted Service, stating, “This order for substituted service, Hearing notice, and the form for custody and maintenance be served on the respondent who cannot be traced for personal service to be effected on him by posting copies of the processes at the following places for 14 days, after which period this shall be deemed sufficient service.”
The order continued, “When the case is called and you do not appear and answer, the court will proceed to hear the case without you.”
The court action was initiated by Michelle Gbagonah, Shatta Wale’s ex-girlfriend, who is seeking monthly maintenance for and custody of their eight-year-old son, Majesty.
Gbagonah claims that Shatta Wale has consistently failed to contribute to their child’s medical bills unless reminded and has neglected his responsibilities as a parent since she moved out of his house.
The court has mandated that the notice of hearing be posted on Shatta Wale’s Instagram handle (@Shatawalenima). Additionally, the court notice will be posted at the Family and Juvenile Court at the former Commercial Court building on High Street, Accra.
Further instructions issued by the court include posting the processes at Shatta Wale’s last known address at an unnumbered house in East Legon around Islamic University in Accra and serving the respondent through his WhatsApp number, 0552222500.
According to a GNA report, Shatta Wale failed to appaer in court when the matter was called before Magistrate Anna Akosua Appiah Gottfried Anaafi on December 18, 2023.
Shatta Wale and Michy used to be a power couple in the entertainment industry in Ghana until the two seperated a few years ago.
