The Deputy Director-General of Ghana Maritime Authority (GMA), Mubarick Masawudu, has issued a seven-day deadline to three newspapers – The National Enquirer, The Insight, and the Daily Democrat – to retract a story that linked him to the alleged use of land guards in a land dispute at Spintex. The demand was made by Masawudu's lawyers, LIMO@LAW, through a letter dated September 15, 2026.
The letter accuses the newspapers of falsely associating Masawudu with violent and unlawful conduct and exposing him to public criticism and risk. LIMO@LAW argues that Masawudu is not connected to the dispute and had no involvement in any land guard activities. The lawyers claim the publication did not conduct proper fact-checking before publication, a violation of established journalistic standards.
The demanded retraction must be equally prominent as the original report and published on the front page of the next edition and on any digital or online platforms where the story was published.
