The management team of Shatta Wale Shatta Movement Records has apologized to the Ghana Society of Physically Disabled (GSPD) for their artiste’s mockery remarks about Stonebwoy.
Shatta Wale, while addressing a feud with Stonebwoy, described him as a disabled person who deserves no empathy. The GSPD, in a statement, asked the Ghanaian Dancehall icon to apologize to its members over his disparaging comment
However, Shatta Wale in response fired back with insults directed at the GSPD. “You can’t create a problem for me, I am a problem myself … Everything we are creating is the association. There is even an Unemployed people association,” Shatta Wale stated.
But in a statement to address the controversy which was signed by the manager of Shatta Wale Sammy Flex, Shatta Movement Empire indicated that the artiste meant no harm against the disabled group.
Shatta movement explained that the ”Ayoo” hitmaker’s statement “may have been misinterpreted” as he had no intention to mock or belittle individuals with disabilities.
“Dear members of Ghana Society of the Physically Disabled, Shatta Movement Empire would like to address a statement made by our artiste during a recent performance that may have been misinterpreted. The intention behind the statement was not to mock or belittle individuals with disabilities, but rather to emphasize the importance of Stonebwoy acting right and treating others with respect at all times.
We understand that the wording of the statement may have been insensitive and we acknowledge the concerns raised. It was not our intention to cause any harm, and we value and respect the contributions and rights of individuals with disabilities in our society.
We are committed to promoting inclusivity and understanding, and we will strive to be more mindful of our words and actions in the future. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we appreciate your understanding.”The statement read
