• Many Ghanaians thronged the comment section of the social media post to express support for Archipalago

Controversial Ghanaian socialite and musician Dennis Anane, popularly known as Archipalago, has courted attention after a video of him exchanging words with a Kotoka International Airport staff member surfaced on social media.

In a video he shared on his official TikTok page on Wednesday, June 11, 2025, the Papa Shein hitmaker was spotted at the airport, preparing to board his flight and depart Ghana for the US, where he has been living for a few years now.

Inside the Kotoka International Airport, socialite Archipalago urged his cameraman to take visuals of him as he admired his outfits while strutting on the walkway in one of the terminals close to the Passport Control area.

As his cameraman hyped him while he walked, a female airport staff member approached the controversial social media personality and informed him about the rules against filming videos at the airport.

The Airport staff member's caution did not go down well with Archipalago, who lashed out at her, drawing the attention of others preparing for their departure.

The social media personality expressed frustration with the rules against filming in the Kotoka International Airport.

He noted that he did not understand why he was prohibited from filming in the Ghanaian airport as compared to the US, where he was allowed to do so.

Despite his objections, the airport insisted on Archipalago following the rules, prompting him to tell his cameraman to ignore her orders.

In the caption of his social media post, he wrote:

"How can you tell me not to make a video at an Airport, while I have been doing this in America! Sometimes, I don’t understand some rules in GH, huh 😂."

The incident between Archipalago and the Kotoka International Airport staff member triggered mixed reactions from Ghanaians who flooded the comment section.
