Okraku-Mantey slams fans of Shatta Wale

34657884Slip boss, Mark Okraku-Mantey has described a decision by fans of Shatta Wale to stop using Vodafone network if the artiste is nominated at this year's edition of the Ghana Music Awards as total backwardness.

Even though Shatta Wale has submitted his nomination forms, the decision to him or not is yet to be taken by the board. The artiste, has on a number of occasions taken the scheme to the mud as he believed it lacked credibility.

Last year, he warned organisers, Charterhouse Limited, not to nominate him and that if they did, he would sue them. This followed a pending court case between him and Charterhouse over series of videos he posted on social media that the latter felt was defamatory to their Chief Executive Officer and the company as a whole.

Fans of Shatta Wale have threatened to stop using Vodafone if the artiste is not nominated they are the headline sponsors of the award. But Okraku-Mantey making a submission on Daybreak Hitz said the action is “prehistoric”.

“So if every year, somebody decides that ‘I like Daddy Lumba, I like Sarkodie so if you don't nominate them, we will dent the brand', would we have come this far? You don't say you will touch the title sponsor because your artiste was not nominated. It is backwardness. It is prehistoric. They should come again,” he told host, KMJ.

Okraku-Mantey expressed utmost disappointment in the fans adding that if he were Shatta Wale, he would dissociate himself from the development.

“Ghana Music Awards has been in existence for the past sixteen years and it goes well every year. should one man's fans say if he is not nominated, this is what they will do? If it were me, I would say that if such a brand should go down because of me, I wash my hands off. And I'm very disappointed in those fans. My reason is, if you go and hit on Vodafone, what do you get? Is that how you get nominations?” he queried.

“And I am tempted to think that, it tells me the kind of people who follow him. Because really, if they are as serious as all who are thinking of how to move the country forward, what are they doing at this time? They are sleeping. Those who are thinking in that direction should come again,” Okraku-Mantey added.
