Multiple award-winning Ghanaian dancehall star, Livingstone Etse Satekla famed as Stonebwoy, has reacted to the decision by the VGMA board to lift a ban placed on him.

The Putuu singer took to Twitter to react to the decision of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards board to allow him and Shatta Wale to participate in subsequent VGMAs starting this year.

Stonebwoy's post on social media indicated that he was not too enthused with the choice of words in the press release that announced the lifting of the ban.

In particular, Stonebwoy sort of had a challenge with the portion of the statement that read: "...if they so desire".

Stonebwoy was of the opinion that the VGMA board should have given them a fair hearing before taking the decision two years ago and should have done same before lifting the ban.

His tweet read: "Dear VGMA Board & Scheme organisers,I hear the purpose of the VGMA is to celebrate and project Ghanaian musicians and music. If that is so, it takes nothing from you to meet with us the artistes/ our reps b4 reaching decisions that affect us and communicating them to the public."

He followed up that tweet with: "The right to be heard is a principle that applies in every noble society. Even the all-seeing God, who had already seen and knew all that Adam and Eve did in the Garden of Eden, still made sure he heard them before he took action against them. #IfTheySoDesire really???"
