World Cup Fundraising Committee must clarify Shatta Wale’s GH¢5m claim– Wonder Mandel

Special Aide to the Minister for Sports and Recreation, Wonder Mandel, has called on the committee responsible for fundraising and promotions for Ghana’s 2026 World Cup campaign to clarify the reported GH¢5 million payment claim involving dancehall artiste Shatta Wale.

According to Mandel, the reported financial obligation does not fall under the Sports Ministry because the artiste was engaged by the World Cup fundraising committee, which was chaired by the Deputy Finance Minister.
