Shatta Wale defends Ghanaian women in Yaytseslav’s viral videos

"Yeah but the difference is that most Ghanaian men don’t or won’t get the same level of response that the Russian guy easily got because he is WHITE. I mean look at this."
Man Appeals for Compassion for Yaytseslav's 'Ladies
A Ghanaian man has voiced his confusion and concern over the recent events involving Russian visitor Yaytseslav and Ghanaian women.
He pointed out that, relative to the current exchange rates, the Ghanaian cedi has significantly more value than the Russian ruble.
As a result, he struggles to comprehend why some Ghanaian women would be drawn to someone like Yaytseslav, who has become a controversial figure following the incident.
Despite this, he has called for empathy towards the women involved, highlighting that they have already faced public disgrace.
He emphasised the importance of forgiveness and love, suggesting that extending kindness to them could help mitigate further humiliation.
He urged internet users to cease sharing the videos and discussing the matter, especially in spaces where those directly affected are present, to avoid exacerbating their trauma.

Yaytseslav and Hotel receptionist's video trends
The situation took a dramatic turn when a young hotel receptionist was subjected to severe public humiliation after private videos of her interactions with Yaytseslav circulated online.
In an exclusive interview with YEN.com.gh, a human resources expert explained that the woman may have breached her employment contract by engaging in a romantic gesture, specifically when she kissed Yaytseslav during his stay at the hotel.
In the widely circulated footage, she was seen demonstrating various toiletries to Yaytseslav, during which he attempted to engage her in casual conversation.
This seemingly innocent interaction took a more personal turn when Yaytseslav returned to the hotel lobby asking her to reheat her food in the microwave, presumably as an excuse to meet again.
The viral video later depicted him trying to dance with her and planting a kiss, escalating the public scrutiny surrounding her actions.
