Media personality, Bridget Otoo finally takes a dig at boss of defunct Menzgold Company Limited over claims that the CEO of Menzgold, Nana Appiah Mensah, aka NAM 1 has sued her for alleging he is scammer.
Bridget Otoo took to her social media account and accused NAM1 of allegedly selling fake gold to Ghanaians, taking their funds illegally, and then having the guts to press legal charges against her for allegedly calling him a ‘scammer.’
In a writ of summons dated November 7, 2023, cited by ATL FM news, Nana Appiah Mensah accused Bridget Otoo of posting defamatory comments on her X handle in relation to his pending criminal case.

According to the writ of summons NAM 1 sued Bridget Otoo at an Accra High Court and demanded among others, GH¢1 million in damages and other reliefs.
This defamation suit was triggered by an X post made by Bridget Otoo on her handle which according to NAM 1 sought to defame him.
Nana Appiah Mensah, CEO of defunct Menzgold Gold Company Limited.
The comment made on X on 21st October 2023, contains a word, “scammer” which NAM 1 deems as a misrepresentation and a dent on his image.
“In which country will a fraudster like @Nam_the_patriot be allowed to do this? This is a form of bribe for the police who are to arrest him to distribute money on his behalf! Smh F NAM1 is a scammer #Jail him #OccupyJulorbiHouse,”
In a sharp rebuttal to the suit in question, Bridget Otoo also took to her X account again and took a dig at the Menzgold CEO, alleging that he sold sold Aurum Utalium (fake gold used by criminals) to decent working Ghanaians took their money, thus questioning the locus and moral right to sue her for alleging he is a scammer.
“You sold Aurum Utalium (fake gold used by criminals) to decent working Ghanaians took their money and you are suing me for calling you a scammer.
@nam_the_patriot We can’t wait to retell the Menzgold story cos it was dying out in the media. I’m in the office, come and serve me”.
Aside from the 1 million Ghana cedis in damages, he was also seeking a perpetual injunction restraining Bridget Otoo from publishing any further defamatory material against him.
