Ghanaian dancehall musician, Shatta Wale, has announced the end of his association with the Ghanaian music awards.
This is coming in the wake of the ugly scenes that marred the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards where colleague, Shatta Wale, pulled out a gun during his award acceptance speech.
The 34-year-old singer made his decision public in an Instagram post on Thursday.
“Upon sober reflections of events in recent times and having made broader consultations, I wish to announce that I will not be part of the Ghana Music Awards scheme going forward. God bless!” he wrote.
Stonebwoy had pulled out a gun out on the stage of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) in the early hours of Sunday.
The 2019 edition was the 20th installation of the awards ceremony and Stonebwoy had been crowned the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards reggae dancehall artiste of the year.
While giving his acceptance speech, he called out colleague, Shatta Wale, bragging about winning the award for the fifth year in a row.
The taunting got to Shatta Wale who made his way to the podium with members of his entourage to confront Stonebwoy.
They were however stopped and in a video circulating online, Stonebwoy is seen with a gun on stage while he is held back by security operatives.
