Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie has sent a heartfelt message to his fanbase, SarkNation, urging them to move away from toxic fan culture and return to what made the group special.
In a long statement shared on social media, the rapper acknowledged SarkNation for birthing many of the fanbase trends in Ghana today, saying he doesn’t take that for granted.
He praised the “day ones”, the first wave of SarkNation, for positioning his brand with commitment and loyalty, without toxic energy.
According to him, a true SarkNation member should not be consumed by what another brand is doing.
“A true SarkNation member shouldn’t be consumed by what another brand is doing. Focus on the brand you love. No hate. No bitterness. No unnecessary competition. You don’t have to tear someone else down to prove your loyalty to Sarkodie,” he cautioned.
Sarkodie noted that as fanbases grow, dilution is inevitable, but the current trend of fanbases tearing each other down does not help the industry or the artists they claim to support.
He advised his fans not to fall for bait and online triggers, and cautioned artists against entertaining fans who insult other brands just to elevate them.
According to him, “Just because a fan sh**s on another brand to elevate you doesn’t mean they love you more… They may look like they’re fighting for you, but they genuinely don’t give AF about you.”
The rapper called on the new crop of SarkNation to learn from the old crop, whose focus was always the music, the movement and the brand.
“I know I’m still here because of God, SarkNation and hard work, so I never joke with you guys. I appreciate y’all more than you know,” he added.
Fashion student Matilda Domfegro was crowned Miss Tourism Ghana 2026 at a colourful grand finale held last Friday at the National Theatre in Accra.
Matilda beat seven other finalists after weeks of challenging activities and grooming. On the night, contestants put their best foot forward as they were tested in key areas including Regional Representation, Specific Tourism Presentation, and a Q&A session, where they showed their knowledge of Ghana’s tourism potential before a panel of judges.
At the end of the keenly contested event, Matilda emerged as the overall winner. Adwoa Nyarko Owusu-Sarfo and Agnes Nuworzah were adjudged 1st and 2nd princesses respectively.
Speaking to The Spectator after her crowning, an elated Matilda said she was excited to wear the crown and was ready to leave a lasting legacy by projecting Ghana’s tourist sites.
She noted that through collaboration with stakeholders and strategic planning, Ghana’s tourism sector could see massive growth.
“Tourism is the mother of all sectors because it has many other industries along its value chain. I call on everyone to come on board,” she added.
