Shatta Wale's arrest

Shatta Wale was arrested following a shooting prank he played on Ghanaians on October 18, 2021.

The falsehood was started by his PA, Nana Dope, who was also arrested even before Shatta Wale was caught.

In that fake shooting incident, Nana Dope claimed that Shatta Wale had been rushed to the emergency ward of an undisclosed hospital after some gunmen shot him in the rain.

He was denied bail after appearing in court and remanded in police custody.
