It would be recalled that Shatta Wale was billed to perform at the TF hostel at the University of Ghana but on the day of the event, his performance was cancelled because of an “Order from above”.
Shatta Wale in his usual rants on social media blamed Stonebwoy for influencing the decision.

Their permission was given for a Karaoke night and they could not allow an artiste night since they did not make the needed security arrangements and did not receive clearance from the school’s authorities.
Reacting to claims that he had something to do with the cancellation, Stonebwoy indicated that the claims he called for the event to be cancelled were ridiculous.
