Ghanaian musician Emmanuel Kofi Botwe popularly known as Kwaw Kese has made an appeal to the Ghana Police to question Charles Nii Armah also known as Shatta Wale and Lawrence Nana Asiamah Hanson (Bullgod), about the murder of his late former manager Fennec Okyere.
Shatta Wale alleged his former manager Lawrence Nana Kofi Asiamah ‘Bullgod’ Hanson and his associates plotted the murder of the late Fennec Okyere.
He said this in a rant on Facebook after Bullgod leaked the supposed tracklist for his delayed ‘Gift of God (GoG)’ album which was advertised to be released on 17 October 2022.
“Bull Dog, since you are bringing out secrets, you will tell Ghanaians what happened (concerning) Fennec’s murder!! I am ready to tell the court about what you told me about you and your men and how (you) planned that foolish act. Get ready,” he wrote.
Taking to Twitter Wednesday midmorning, the Madtime Records founder and rapper Kwaw Kese tagged the official Ghana Police Service handle and asked: “please help us get justice on my manager’s murder.”
“I believe @shattawalegh [Shatta Wale] and @BULLHAUS [Bullhaus Entertainment, Bullgod] know something we need to know. Please let’s delve into this,” he added.
Wednesday evening, the Ghana Police Service, released a statement acknowledging their sighting of Shatta Wale’s allegation on social media.
“The attention of the Police Service has been drawn to a Facebook post by Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jnr., popularly known as Shatta Wale regarding the death of artiste manager Fennec Okyere.
“The Police have made contact with Shatta Wale who is cooperating with us on the matter.
“The Police would like to put on record that the recently established Cold Case Unit, has been working for months on all unresolved murder cases, including that of Fennec Okyere with support from the affected families.
“This new development from Shatta Wale is therefore going to complement our ongoing investigation.
“We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the families who have been working with the Cold Case Unit since its establishment for their cooperation and understanding.
“We wish to assure the public that the Police will continue to work relentlessly on these cases in order to bring closure to the affected families,” the statement reads.
In response to this, Shatta Wale said: “Thank you, Ghana Police [thank you/prayer hand emojis],” on Facebook.
Fennec Okyere, 31, was murdered on Thursday, March 13, 2014, at his Manet Gardens home, Spintex Road, Accra, by unidentified attackers.
