In a recent Instagram live video, Shatta Wale passionately spoke out against what he perceives as a lack of transparency and responsibility within Ghana's political system. He directly addressed the recent scandal involving former Minister of Sanitation, Cecilia Dapaah, who had a substantial sum of money and valuables stolen from her residence by two house helps.
Shatta Wale pointedly questioned the priorities of the politicians, expressing dismay that the focus seemed to be on the house helps who allegedly committed the theft, rather than the minister herself for having such a substantial amount in her possession. "Look at our politicians, they aren’t studying politics; they're studying the foolishness of Ghanaians," he asserted.
Venturing further into his concerns, Shatta Wale highlighted a perceived disconnect between politicians and the genuine interests of the nation. He boldly expressed his belief that many who enter politics are driven by personal gain rather than a sincere commitment to the country's well-being.
In his words, "The politicians know that you can't tell them their faults, and that is why they can do whatever they want. Anybody you see going into politics is going for the money, not in the interest of the people. All of them, apart from me. As you are in Ghana, just pray, because this country will never change, the money will keep going wherever it's going."
Shatta Wale's impassioned statements reflect the sentiments of numerous citizens who feel their concerns and voices are being overlooked by those in power. His remarks come at a crucial moment, as investigations into the theft scandal involving the former Minister continue to unfold.
As Shatta Wale uses his platform to shed light on issues of accountability and transparency, the nation watches closely to see if his calls for change will resonate with those in positions of authority.
