Popular Ghanaian musician Shatta Wale recently took to Twitter to express his desire to identify as Nigerian. The catalyst for this declaration was a fan’s inquiry regarding his use of Nigerian flags in a previous tweet.

Responding to the fan’s question, Shatta Wale tweeted:

Which Ghana? A place where everyone seems tired… I want to relocate. Even Kwame Nkrumah, who fought for our independence, isn’t getting the respect his vision deserves. My friends, call me ‘Ike Chukwu Nnamdi’ from now on.

This unexpected statement sparked reactions in the comment section, as Shatta Wale seemed to be disavowing his Ghanaian nationality in favour of embracing a Nigerian identity. The musician appeared to be expressing his frustration with what he perceived as a lack of appreciation from Ghanaians for his contributions to the country’s music scene.
