Dr. Kyeremateng has also sued the immediate past Board Chairman of the TMPC, Mr. Williams K. Odum, and the President of the Ghana Alternative Medical Practitioners Association, Albert Arthur.

In the writ of summons, the plaintiff, who is the founder of C4C Homeopathic Hospital, averred that he was appointed the Registrar of the TMPC based on his qualifications and experience in the field of medical homeopathy.

However, the defendants, in their official capacities, have taken a series of actions aimed at publicly undermining his reputation, his office as Registrar, and his personal qualifications.

According to him, these utterances were naturally and ordinarily understood by right-thinking members of society to mean that the plaintiff is a fake medical homeopath who used dubious means to attain his professional position.

“Again, right-thinking members of society would naturally and ordinarily understand the utterances to mean that within the medical community, the plaintiff is not qualified to practice as a medical homeopath and should not be seen carrying himself as such,” the suit read in part.

Dr. Kyeremateng lamented that as a result of the defendants’ actions, his reputation has been seriously damaged. His previously esteemed personality within both the international and medical communities has been denigrated, causing him emotional distress, anxiety, and embarrassment.

The alleged defamatory acts, he claims, have significantly reduced his once-envied reputation into dishonor, contempt, and reproach.

He is therefore seeking a court order directing the defendants to publish, on three consecutive occasions and on the same platforms where the defamatory statements were made, an unqualified retraction and apology with the same level of prominence.

Dr. Kyeremateng is also praying the court for a perpetual injunction restraining the defendants, their agents, assigns, and servants from further publishing defamatory statements.

Furthermore, he seeks damages of GH₵3,000,000 as well as other costs, including legal fees and any additional orders the court may deem fit.

According to him, most of the projects he undertook are now worn out and have not seen any renovation whereas no new ones are taking place living the constituency underdeveloped.

“I tiled all major roads in the constituency, built schools and many more but when I visit them, I cry because the roads are now bad, no rehabilitation and school buildings have become old without any renovation and this breaks me down,” he said.

He said this is because the people of Asikuman Adoben Brakwa have not had any competent MP to represent them after he left office.

He stated it is about time constituents realise and vote for someone who can build on his legacy.

The former lawmaker said this when a New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary candidate hopeful in the constituency, Dr Michael Kwadwo Kyeremateng, visited him to seek his blessings and guidance.

Mr Appiah Ofori used the opportunity to advise Dr Kyeremateng that if he is given the nod to go to Parliament, he should not neglect the people.

He urged the aspirants to contribute massively to every debate in the Chamber and use his MP’s Common Fund to help transform the constituency.

He told Dr Kyeremateng to be cautious of sycophants who will pretend to be supporting him but will be working against him.

“I remember during my time, some NPP executives in the constituency took money from my opponents and campaigned against me but with hard work, I won so he has to be careful because not all party supporters who come to him wish good for him,” he admonished.

Dr Kyeremateng, on his part, said he will follow in the footsteps of PC Appiah Ofori and will not let the constituency down when he is given the nod.

“PC has a lot of legacy at the constituency and I will do my best to ensure all his projects that are in deplorable state are fixed and do new ones if given the opportunity,” he pledged.

The appointment is a four-year term and in recognition of his commitment and service to the party.

Dr Kyeremateng, until his appointment, was the National Secretary of an NPP voluntary group, National Advocacy Association of Ghana and the Central Regional Chairman of Akufo-Addo’s government advocate.

Having spent most years of his life living in the constituency, his impact through his businesses has been accorded respect and honour as the Youngest Patron.

The new appointment comes a few days after he resigned from the National Advocacy group, citing professional reasons.

Dr Kyeremateng has explained the resignation which takes immediate effect is based on professional grounds.

In a statement, he indicated he will not want to associate his name with the aforementioned organisation as the National Secretary or member.

The General Public, he has advised, should therefore exclude him from all activities of the organisation further on.
