Controversial dance hall star, Shatta Wale has been in the news for the past few days for several reasons. Among others, the controversial artiste is dominating the showbiz headlines due to an infamous statement he made about Ghana whilst performing at the Reign concert at the Indigo at the O2 in London (UK) few days ago.
In the course of his performance at the concert, Shatta Wale described Ghana as a village and later attempted a justification for his comment by highlighting some of Ghana’s challenges on Twitter.

The infamous comment which is attracting a host of reactions on social media has also sparked the attention of the 2016 VGMA Artiste of the Year, E.L. In response to Shatta Wale’s description of Ghana as a village, E.L referred to a famous statement, a former president of the United States of America, John F. Kennedy made during his inaugural address as the 35th President of the United States in 1961.
E.L apparently urged Shatta Wale to consider the former US President’s statement by spearheading a developmental cause for the betterment of Ghana and not just highlighting our challenges and mounting pressure on the nation’s leaders to act.
