However, the plaintiff said, the comedian reneged on his promise and also failed to pay her back the money when their relationship broke down.

A writ shared by Citinewroom indicates that Funny Face and Ama Boansi met in 2016, before upgrading their relationship from friends to lovers.

The plaintiff said she loved Funny Face and so decided to take care of the costs involved in his movie projects.

She said the comedian promised to pay back the said money, but has since refused to honour his part of the deal.

She, therefore, wants the court to, among other things, direct Funny Face to pay her the $53,105.53 with interest.
