Ghanaian dancehall artiste Shatta Wale has expressed disappointment over his recent encounter with the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) regarding investigations into a Lamborghini linked to former National Signals Bureau Director-General, Kwabena Adu-Boahene.
Speaking in an interview on Ekosii Sen, the musician said the controversy has damaged his reputation and affected several business opportunities both locally and internationally.
According to him, EOCO officials visited his residence to verify claims that some vehicles belonging to Mr. Adu-Boahene were in his possession, but he insisted the only car found at his house was his Lamborghini.
Shatta Wale maintained that he has no dealings with the former state official and questioned why the issue was not handled privately. He said the situation has created the impression that he knowingly purchased a stolen vehicle, which he described as unfair.
“I want to boldly say that the EOCO boss needs to apologise to my brand, not me, Shatta Wale, because they have really tarnished my image in Ghana and even abroad,” he stated.
“The best thing they could have said was, ‘Shatta, come and take your car,’ but to hear another story that the car is proceeds of crime, I was like, ‘where is this coming from?’ At a point, I felt like I was not safe in this country.”
