He opined that the purpose of IShowSpeed's visit should be seen as an opportunity to showcase Ghana's tourist sites and destinations to the world.

He then opposed the idea of taking him to a place to see plush cars, claiming the whole tour of IShowSpeed seemed to have been hijacked by the political elite.

"Allow the boy to do whatever he wants to do on the grounds. The political elite, they have hijacked it. When they look at the pictures that are going to come out, right now it is going to be about pay-per-view. That is what they are going to do. And it is going to defeat the purpose of him coming here."

"Ebi true chale. Which supercar are you going to show him that he has not seen before?"

@iamogidigidi indicated:

"Kwadwo Sheldon critiques everything related to Mahama."

@EricaYaa249 indicated:

"It's not just about him; it's about his viewers. Do you know there were people in his chat who thought there were no cars in Africa? Let's think wide."

@Nanakofiwaddle added:

"He will go to South Africa and ride cars; no problem. But this is Ghana, so it's challenging… Sheldon’s criticism is unnecessary.
