Popular Ghanaian dancehall artist Shatta Wale has called on his fans to make careful and informed choices when voting during the forthcoming December 7 presidential election.
Speaking during his performance at the Ghana Report Concert at Independence Square, Shatta Wale used the platform to stress the importance of mindful voting.
Amidst the pulsating energy of the concert, Shatta Wale urged his fans to resist the allure of quick decisions at the polls.
He warned them against being swayed by empty promises and manipulative tactics, advocating for a more thoughtful approach to voting.
“If you’re going to vote, please be wise about it. Don’t fall for any fun fooling. I don’t want you to vote for some party and later come complaining. Vote wisely,” Shatta Wale emphasised.
Known for his neutral stance on politics, the dancehall artist reiterated the need for his followers to carefully assess the actions and agendas of political figures before casting their votes.
He encouraged them to prioritise the nation’s well-being rather than being influenced by superficial pledges or popular opinion.
Shatta Wale’s advice comes amidst several protests in Ghana that have got many protesters arrested.
Following the two-week detention of some #OccupyJulorbiHouse protesters, several celebrities have joined the #FreetheCitizens campaign on social media, particularly on X, advocating for releasing individuals arrested during the demonstrations.
