Angry young Ghanaians descended on musician, Shatta Wale, after attempting to discourage people from joining the any future planned protest against galamsey in Accra.

Shatta Wale in a tweet on his Twitter handle called on young people to stop protesting against galamsey and other issues because they will end being locked up.

"Even Accra problems we can't solve and you in Accra fighting ,they will catch u and lock you … Ghetto youth be wise and don't let foolish people lead you astray … Learn ooo Ghana youth learn ..They are using you thru agents of the devil," he wrote.
