The four-time African footballer of the year replies the woman is steering a smear campaign against him after he discovered she had misappropriated huge sums of money he gave her to set up a charity.
“Investigations are ongoing. They are sufficiently advanced,” one of Koah’s lawyers Jean Moïse Abah Fouda said at a press conference.
The first lawsuit was filed in a Yaoundé court. The second concerns the publication of nude images of Ms Koah which her lawyers say is an international offence that can be heard in any jurisdiction.
Foundation and a shop
A longstanding love relationship between Eto'o and Ms Koah, an air hostess with the national carrier Camair, ended on a sour note recently, Mr Abah Fouda said.
Eto'o had filed a lawsuit against his ex-girlfriend in May.
He said on his Facebook page in June that he offered the woman well over 200 million FCFA ($410,755) which he wants refunded.
The sum was intended for the setting up of a foundation and a shop where his products under his label would be sold to fans at reduced costs, the footballer claimed. None of that was done, he said.
Ms Koah’s lawyers say the lady was never involved in the project.
Following Eto'o’s complaint, Ms Koah was arrested but released after several days in police custody, according to local media reports.
She then filed the lawsuit against Eto'o when naked pictures of her made the rounds on social networks.
“Cybercrime specialists are hard at work to determine the exact origin of these photos and possibly who posted them online," said Ndam Mama, another of Ms Koah lawyers.
"But our client has confirmed that Samuel (Eto'o) is the only one who had those pictures," he added.
Love gone bad
