A popular Ghanaian YouTuber, Kwadwo Sheldon, has raised objections to reported activities the famous American streamer IShowSpeed is participating in during his visit.
Reacting to claims that the 21-year-old would attend the Supercar Spectacle, an automobile festival, Kwadwo voiced his concerns, saying this is the wrong move.

Kwadwo Sheldon opined that IShowSpeed's visit should have primarily been used as an opportunity to market Ghana's tourist destinations to the world.
He then opposed the idea of taking him to a showroom to see plush cars, which he used as a basis to make his point that IshowSpeed's trip had been hijacked by political elites.
"Allow the boy to do whatever he wants to do on the ground. The political elite have hijacked it (the trip). 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 his coming here."

@Greatnesss99 stated:
"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.
