The Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) has dropped details of how dancehall artiste, Shatta Wale, pleaded with its officials to protect his brand when officials visited his private residence to retrieve an alleged stolen Lamborghini Urus.
A statement released by EOCO disclosed that Shatta Wale, known officially as Charles Nii Armah Mensah, pleaded with officers that he did not want the seizure to be made public because the vehicle was a big part of his brand.
It further revealed that Shatta's humble plea stemmed from the fact that the artiste did not want his supporters and the larger society to be aware of the seizure of the alleged stolen vehicle "being driven away in the company of EOCO" because that would destroy his brand.
As a result of his plea, the statement revealed that "Nii Armah was allowed to surrender the vehicle himself, which is currently in the possession of EOCO." According to EOCO, the FBI and the Justice Department have tied the 2019 Lamborghini Urus to "the proceeds of the criminal enterprise of one Nana Kwabena Amuah, who is currently serving an 86-month sentence for several financial crimes in the US." Meanwhile, Shatta Wale, in a Facebook post on August 5, 2025, strongly criticised the Acting Executive Director of EOCO, Raymond Archer, for an alleged armed raid at his official residence. "Raymond Archer, EOCO boss, ibe you go make NDC go out of power next 4 years.
