Shatta Wale writes love letter to President Mahama

Dancehall Artiste, Charles Nii Armah Mensah, professionally known as Shatta Wale, has called on President John Dramani Mahama to reform Ghana’s entertainment industry.

In a heartfelt Facebook post on January 13, 2025, the Shatta Movement leader appealed to the President to implement changes that would attract more professionals to the industry, particularly in radio and television.

“Letter to our new President of Ghana. I wish our new president John Dramani Mahama can also reform our music system to attract more professionals on radio and television, similar to the appointment of new ministers when they assume power. The entertainment industry needs that change. The younger ones coming can’t go through what some of us have been through. My humble wish… just for the next generations to come and see this music business as a job and not just fun,” he wrote.

Shatta Wale has consistently championed a focus on the business aspect of Ghana’s entertainment sector, urging stakeholders to create an environment where the industry is viewed as a viable career path.

The ‘On God’ hitmaker recently returned from Jamaica after a debut performance with his mentor, Vybz Kartel.
