Former President of the Ghana Football Association, Kwesi Nyantakyi has reacted to Anas Armeyaw Anas' court case defeat to politician Kennedy Agyapong.

The defamation suit brought against the Member of Parliament for Assin Central was dismissed by an Accra High Court, with the judge ruling the investigative journalist as a blackmailer and extortionist.

"The high court's decision testifies to the truth that Anas Aremwyaw Anas is not honest but as described by the court, he is a blackmailer and an extortionist," said Nyantakyi on Oman FM, as quoted by GHANAsoccernet.

"The judge also described his job as an investigative terrorist instead of investigative journalist. He has been totally disgraced. He once portrayed himself as an angel but today I'm not even sure he is at the devil's level yet," he added.

Nyantakyi was banned after the investigative piece was aired in June 2018, losing his position at CAF and FIFA subsequently.
