Shatta Wale's fan admires his new Lamborghini
Meanwhile, Shatta Wale drove his purple Lamborghini during his visit to Jomoro MP, Dorcas Affo-Toffey.
The musician got the vehicle this year after the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) seized a yellow one he previously owned.
Shatta Wale was detained in connection with several criminal investigations, with detectives probing his alleged involvement in money laundering and tax evasion.
The buzz surrounding the EOCO saga increased after the musician acquired the new Lamborghini. He even composed a song to mark the latest addition to his luxurious fleet, comprising a Rolls-Royce Cullinan.
