According to the DJ, Sarkodie might perform at an event in Paris around the same time as the Olympic games, not during the opening ceremony of the sports event.

He tweeted,

"Let me clarify this before I’m misinterpreted: There “MIGHT” be an event in Paris around the same time the Olympics is happening, but it's *NOT” during the opening ceremony. This is to provide more clarification on what is circulating."

DJ Mensah stated that he is not a spokesperson for Sarkodie, emphasising that he only went to promote the 2024 Ghana Party In The Park event.

He also accused the Ghanaian media of focusing on his earlier statements instead of promoting his event.

"I went on the radio to promote Ghana Party in the Park. Yet, I haven’t seen one story claiming that the event is next Saturday. This is exactlythe my problem with the media. I always pay to promote every event I do; I don't get free publicity and receive support from very few. But the energy we put into other unnecessary stories is astonishing. "
