Focus on helping the youth – Shatta Wale appeals to Akufo-Addo
Musician, Shatta Wale, has pleaded with President Akufo-Addo to turn his attention to the youth and focus on helping them.
According to him, people have been reaching out to him with numerous complaints and stories of their struggles.
“Mr President, please focus on the youth of Ghana more for me. They love you but it’s like they don’t see anything happening to them in their lives. The complaint is too much in my inbox,” Shatta Wale wrote in a post on Snapchat.
He also urged President Akufo-Addo to see himself as a father for all when making decisions that would positively influence the lives of Ghanaians.
“Trust me, you have tried your best so please try and spend more of your time with the youth these days and see the magic,” the ‘On God’ singer said.
Shatta Wale believes it is time for the President to reciprocate the love the youth has for him.
“I know you can do something and I pray you do. My humble request,” he stated.

Osanju is dead
Popular Ghanaian content creator, Elvis Frimpong, known in showbiz circles as Osanju has been reported dead.
According to sources, he was said to have died in the early hours on Monday, September 1, 2025 after a long battle with blood cancer (Leukemia)
His death has been a shock in the Ghanaian community especially coming shortly after his last post.
His demise comes five months after he had laid his mother, Amounu, also a tiktoker, to rest, having lost her in January.
Hours before his passing, he had posted a video on Sunday with friends watching the Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano match, prompting many fans to initially dismiss the reports as a hoax.
Osanju’s death has been described as a huge loss by followers who admired his openness, resilience and positive outlook in the face of ill health.
However, Osanju had previously shared his battle with leukemia, a cancer of the blood, on his TikTok account, even eerily predicting his own demise on a couple of occasions.
