Ghanaian reggae-dancehall artist, Shatta Wale, has made a passionate plea to Ghanaians, calling on them to swallow their pride and extend an apology to former President John Dramani Mahama.
According to Shatta Wale, Mahama was unfairly treated during his presidency, and it’s time for the nation to make amends.
Shatta Wale emphasized that Ghanaians didn’t give Mahama a chance to implement his vision, instead opting for Akuffo Addo.
However, he noted that now that Akuffo Addo is being criticized for not being good for the country, it’s essential to acknowledge the wrongs of the past and apologize .
The renowned artist, who has been vocal about his support for Mahama, shared his personal experience of benefiting from Mahama’s presidency. This public endorsement comes as a surprise to some, given Shatta Wale’s history of controversy and criticism.
Shatta Wale’s appeal has sparked a national conversation, with many Ghanaians weighing in on social media. While some have praised Shatta Wale’s courage, others have questioned his motives. Nevertheless, this call to action has brought attention to the importance of reflection and reconciliation in Ghana’s political landscape.
As the December 7th Presidential and Parliamentary election approaches, one thing is clear; Shatta Wale’s statement has ignited a necessary discussion about the treatment of former President Mahama who is contesting again as the flagbearer of the Opposition National Democratic Congress.
