Shatta Wale has explained why he was missing from this year’s ‘Ghana in the Park’ concert which happened on Saturday, July 16, 2022, despite being the main act for the show.
According to the popular singer, a disagreement ensued between him and the organizers, making him to abandon the show in the last minute.
In his words, Dennis Tawiah breached an agreement he had with him to make him the only performer of the night.
Shatta Wale said: “I was in America, and I called Dennis and told him that they’ve done Party in the Park for the past years, but they haven’t done any special edition. So I’m about to launch my Gift of God (GOG) album, and I want you guys to make a special edition for me.
“This year’s Party in the Park should be Shatta Wale alone. Yes, Me alone as the only musician.”
He also disclosed on Good Evening Ghana that his contribution to the above agreement was a free performance.
“I told him that this show that we are about to organize, I want him to take all the proceeds. I don’t need money. But just organise this thing for me so well so I can come with my team and perform.”
Shatta Wale said he later saw the flyer advertising other artists to perform alongside, which goes contrary to the plan. He highlighted this by saying, “The day I was supposed to fly, I told him, Dennis, if you want me to come, then you have to give me £100,000.”
