Pay our sister or mother. These companies think they can take advantage of our people.
THEIR CURRENCY CONVERTED TO 2 MILLION GHC IS NOTHING FOR A COMPANY LIKE THAT.
Obviously some lawyer want some free money, right?
If not for poverty, should this have resulted in any lawsuit...???? Hmmmm, the things poverty can do eehhh.......
It has nothing to do with poverty...... ask b4 publishing people's images....
Simple as that .
lawsuit yes. They cannot exploit her for corporate/Commercial gain to her detriment.
Very interesting comments. This is what ignorance can do, these are the people politicians love.
@Koti...the irony of your own ignorance, and you still don't get it despite people trying to educate your dumb ass.Without a signed permision or compensation you get a lawsuit.
It’s interesting how some people think. These are the same people who will support a politician who steals from the public and uses the money meant for the public for their own benefit. Then when that thieving politician is ...

Well put. Thank you
THE LAW IS THE LAW
if not for poverty my ass.. do you know most of these market women earn more income than most of you in tie sitting in offices??
You're ignorant of the law, but that's no excuse
This has nothing to do with poverty,ofui,people rights must always be respected,no matter poor or rich.
Are you a normal huma or trying to be? Some of you are the reason these things happen. How do you use someone's picture without her consent? Are you normal? What is the meaning of, if not for poverty, should this result in an ...

This is your luck..take full advantage madam
She should get image rights payments for all billboards and commercials involving her as long as they are running and being used. Time to cash out Ma'
I tell u!What a lb opportunity !
90% of the money is for the crooked lawyers pockets.
Exactly as you know it!
Very smart move of her IP rights.
This will never work for compensation. Was that your personal image or the product. This is similar to sakodie. If the government takes pictures of food products or across the market what would you say?
Waste of time. Is ...

My brother read well and understand before you respond to issues.
The writer says file photo get someone to explain to you what that means.
BRAIN FREE, INTELLIGENCE FREE. WE BEG, DON'T HAVE KIDS WAI
The person said her friends told her about the bill boards and u are asking if the picture is about the product...... are the onions unique to their sellers....
Lazy Gas want to be smart
Are you from kumasi?no hard feelings. I am only asking.
Useless being,she is from your children, someone made foolish comments and you foolishly asking if she is from Kumasi,some of you just hate Asantes for no obvious reasons. Asantes you hate are better than you million times
Ashantis suffer from cognitive dissonance and mental incapacity. They need help. Some of those illiterates even say Kwaku Duah is Julius Caesar, in addition to king solomon. If this is not madness, then tell me.
Opinionated bush people blinded by ignorance .
Coming from a low I.Q ,lazy beach shitter..very funny
@Goodman.. This type of nonsense only comes from one place, and one place only, KUMASI. It's like they have taken an oath to demonize other tribes with lies to feed their inferiority complex. The rest of Ghana does not have p ...

Wow. It’s amazing how Asantes are living rent free in the minds of the other tribes. Why do you get psychologically traumatized anytime hear of the name Asantes? Seriously, this is not good for your mental health. This is t ...

You don’t understand. Stay in your corner.
Six4,this is not poverty matter,this is unauthorized violation of her human rights and dignity,the compensation being is even too small.Whoever did that on behalf of Telecel was highly unprofessional and aught to be sacked.
What is 2m ? Stupid lawyers should have asked for 200 billion cedis. And put her on contract since her imaged already been used .
Bam! Thanks
She has hit a gold pot like that. She should start looking for a house to buy
What about KIVO gari 4 in 1
Wow! Let's test the law for purpose of education.
The company will not pay her Foko. Because you can get these images from pexel for free. Or other places to buy. Someone else took her picture and sold it.
Educate yourself on the law.
Can someone take your picture and sell it just like that? Isn't there any legal action the person whose image was taken can take?
What image is this woman and her Lawyers talking about? I can see Onions displayed. Is there something more than the Onions?
Do you know the meaning of intellectual property? If not, please stay in your corner.
This was just a file photo as an illustration for the article..
The case is about another picture showing her face.

Stupid educated fools you should pay her now.
Smart woman
Out of court settlement; make friends with Telcel again! Enjoy your new found fame and the windfall ( sudden prosperity). I hope it was a reasonable pro bono
He he he I laugh enter Mokola market. Admittedly she was not consulted or engaged before using her picture; the company will simply settle her with some cash, she pays her lawyers who know very well that this is a low hanging ...

Madam you should have asked for twenty million and finally settle on ten million. You can change your mind and do the adjustments they will pay . Get a big strong lawyer .
I will always advocate for our of court settlement. The harm has already been done. Reputation is denied. Lawyer is rich. The woman will have her cut. The money will not last
Reputable is damaged
Let's see the advert. She will get some compensation but not to that amount. How popular is she or how well is she know in Ghana?
Only an ignorant person won't see anything wrong with her stance.
T.T, it looks like you are the ignorant one here! Do you know the meaning of using someone’s likeness without consent? If you don’t know, pleas stay in your corner.
What if she confesses that she can't read and did not ask her lawyer to go to court.
Thanks madam,well done,but the money is too small.
Now people will learn from u.
Madam Abbey, go full length with your lawsuit. It is about time these companies should know their boundaries, because in the West, they cannot do that.
ONE QUESTION IS, DID SHE AGREE FOR HER PICTURE TO BE TAKEN? IF YES, WAS THERE AN ORAL "CHAT" THAT WE ARE GOING TO PUBLISH IT AND MAKE EVERYONE SEE YOU?
IF THE ANSWER IS YES, SHE HASN'T GOT MUCH CHANCE.
IF THE ANSWER IS NO, ...

How can a big tech company like telecel make such a childish mistake. Heads will surely role.
