Shatta Wale has also been outspoken about his views on betting taxes in Ghana. In a recent video, he criticised the government’s decision to impose a 10% withholding tax on betting, games, and lottery wins, a policy introduced in 2023. He argued that this tax was unfair, especially for young Ghanaians who rely on betting as a source of income.

The withholding tax has faced backlash from many in the youth community, with many viewing it as a financial burden that could impact their chances of earning income through betting.
