Award-winning Ghanaian Dancehall artist Shatta Wale, born Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jr., has revealed his aspirations to transition from music to politics.

The “On God” hitmaker shared his intention to run for the presidency in a recent interview with blogger Shadrack Crabe, expressing a deep desire to tackle the socio-economic issues plaguing the country.

Shatta Wale stated that his decision to consider a political career stems from a genuine desire to effect positive change in Ghana. He emphasized the importance of leveraging his popularity and influence to unite the nation and address pressing concerns.

“My dream has always been to help solve the major issues affecting my fellow citizens and the nation as a whole,” Shatta Wale explained.

He further revealed that his father had advised him to venture into politics, recognizing the potential impact of his leadership, given his success with the Shatta Movement, Africa’s largest fanbase.

“Ghana needs a president like me… If Ghanaians start to encourage and support me, I will leave music and contest in the next four years’ election,” he stated confidently.
