Popular nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, son of veteran actor Pete Edochie has advised Ghanaian rapper, Shatta Wale, to apologise for throwing shades at Nigerian artistes.
The actor was reacting to Shatta Wale’s rant on Sunday, where the rapper threw shades at Nigerian artistes after selling out a Ghanaian stadium.
The rapper had said:
“They said I won’t be able to fill my own stadiums, I don’t need any Nigerian artiste to sell out Ghana’s stadium, f**k Nigerian artistes,”
On Monday, Shatta Wale also took to his Twitter page to blast Nigerians, telling them to be grateful to Ghana for supporting Nigerian artistes.
In response to his rants, Yul Edochie, who had affirmed his intentions to run for Nigerian Presidency, stated that the rapper should apologise for his remarks.
The actor posted on his verified instagram account:
“Dear Shatta Wale, coming out to say ‘F**k Nigerian artistes’ is extreme and too low for a man like you. That’s hate.
I remember when Nigerian movie producers were giving all the lead roles to Ghanaian actors a few years back, no Nigerian ever came out to say ‘F**k Ghanaian actors’.
I have lots of fans from Ghana who send me goodwill messages daily, inviting me to Ghana and I appreciate all of them.
I’m a fan of your music. Your track with Beyonce is always on repeat in my car.
No matter what is pissing you off, a man like you with a large fan base should be using it to promote peace and unity among Africans and the rest of the world. You should apologise for such a statement”
