Mzbel breaks silence on GH¢1.2m Dispute With UK-Based Ghanaian

Ghanaian musician and entrepreneur Mzbel has revealed that she travelled several times to Northern Ghana and later to Benin in an attempt to seek spiritual intervention over an alleged financial dispute involving about GH¢1.2 million.

Speaking on the September 19, 2026 edition of UTV’s United Showbiz, Mzbel said she became desperate after allegedly losing the money in a scheme involving a UK-based Ghanaian, Janice Inez Mensah.

She explained that the situation became more difficult because people who had entrusted their money to her were putting pressure on her to recover the funds.

Mzbel said she sought different spiritual interventions, including travelling to Northern Ghana and Benin, but claimed that none of the actions had the effect she expected.

She also disclosed that the matter was reported to the authorities, with the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) recovering only a small portion of the money. According to her, Janice occasionally sends about GH¢5,000 through EOCO.

Mzbel said the police also arrested Janice’s brothers in Ghana, but the case against them was later dismissed due to insufficient evidence that they knew about the alleged fraud.

The case reportedly dates back to 2025 and involved promises of UK employment opportunities for young Ghanaians. Court proceedings indicated that Mzbel was allegedly defrauded of GH¢829,637 and £30,028.53.

Reflecting on the experience, Mzbel said it haschanged her view on the effectiveness of curses, despite previously believing in them.
