Flight delay compensation with BA

Flight with BA was delayed by 4 hours and we missed our connecting flight resulting in an overall delay of 4 hours. We were flying from Accra to Heathrow, flight was delayed because the inward flight from Heathrow to Accra was delayed. We were told that the plane had to be repaired. Claimed compensation but this was denied as BA told me that the flight was grounded due to health and safety reasons, there was a report that there were bugs on the plane and it had to be fumigated. BA stating that it was out with their control. If I appeal do I have a chance of getting compensation. Thanks
