Has Shatta Wale been lying about his age all this while?
Mr. Charles Nii Armah Mensah, father of Ghana’s self-acclaimed dancehall king, Shatta Wale, went haywire this afternoon in the studios of an Accra-based radio station.
Mr. Mensah, popular called Shatta Capo, had stormed the studios to rain “fire” on some fake prophets who are predicting death for his superstar son, Shatta Wale.
In so doing, Mr. Mensah revealed some information and facts about his son, and there appears to be some sort of confusion somewhere.

However, the point remains that Wale’s parents are the best people to tell how old their son is, so the dad’s date is likely to win the debate.
Per the father's date, Wale will turn 36 years in October this year, and not 34, according to Wikipedia.
