Strategic Mobilisation Ghana Limited (SML) has issued a stern warning to media houses across the country, demanding an immediate end to what it describes as the publication and broadcast of “false and defamatory” information about the company, its operations, and its management.
In a letter dated November 4, 2025, and addressed to all media houses in Ghana, the company’s solicitors, Boyuo@Law, asked the media to “cease and desist” from publishing or airing unverified allegations that could damage SML’s reputation and business standing.
According to the letter signed by Cephas Boyuo, Esq., SML has observed that “certain individuals have appeared on media platforms and published false, baseless, and defamatory statements regarding its corporate existence, credibility, and operations.”
“These statements are wholly untrue, malicious, and damaging to our client’s reputation,” the lawyers stated, adding that “They have exposed our client to public ridicule, contempt, and substantial harm to its professional and business standing, both within Ghana and internationally.”
The solicitors further directed all media organisations to:
- Immediately cease and desist from allowing the publication or broadcast of false or defamatory statements about SML or its officers;
- Exercise editorial oversight and due diligence in verifying statements made by guests or contributors; and
- Take steps to prevent recurrence of such publications by ensuring rigorous fact-checking and content monitoring.
The letter warned that any media house that fails to comply with the directive would face legal consequences.
“It is instructive to note that any failure, neglect, or refusal to comply with this demand will leave our client with no alternative but to initiate legal proceedings against the media house(s),” the notice stated.
The company urged editors and station managers to treat the matter with “the utmost seriousness” and ensure their platforms are not used to spread “false, misleading, or defamatory statements” about SML.
SML Ghana has in recent months been the subject of intense media and political scrutiny over its contracts with the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), with public debates on the scope, value, and performance of its revenue assurance services.
This latest legal warning appears to be part of the company’s efforts to protect its image and push back against what it describes as misinformation in the ongoing public discourse.
