Dancehall artist, Shatta Wale's management have confirmed that the dancehall is indeed traumatised following a death prophecy shared by Reverend Daniel Yaw Donkoh who is a pastor of the City of Wisdom Centre in Ghana.

In a video shared on his official Facebook page on Tuesday, July 22, he was seen sharing how he received two visions about the musician’s fate.

In the first vision, Shatta Wale was attacked by armed men but managed to escape and later thanked God on social media. In the second vision, the prophet said three gunmen ambushed Shatta Wale and fatally shot him.

This prophecy according to Shatta Wale has traumatised him speaking about the emotional toll and stress it has had on him.

Taking to his social media page on Thursday, July 24, the 'Gringo' hitmaker expressed his anguish in a short but powerful Facebook post, written in white text on a black background he wrote, "I am traumatised."

His emotional distress, a disruption of his peace of mind, has prompted immediate calls from his management for psychological support and therapy.

Shatta Wale’s management team, through Sammy Flex, his immediate past manager and current Public Relations Officer (PRO), announced on social media through a statement on Friday, July 25, and interviews with local media outlets.

The post read, “Shatta Wale is really traumatised… and it’s worrying to the whole management team. Remedy and therapy needed immediately for him. On God.”

This is not the first time Shatta Wale has received a death prophecy. In October 2021, a Ghanaian pastor named Jesus Ahuofe born Bishop Stephen Kwesi Appiah gave a prophecy that Shatta Wale would be shot and killed on October 18, 2021 — the same day as the late Tupac Shakur’s birthday.

In response, Shatta and his team announced on social media that, the dancehall artist had been attacked and shot by unknown gunmen on the evening of October 18, and was receiving treatment.

His aide as at the time,Nana Dope,shared updates of his staged attack on social media, fueling the hoax.

The news spread rapidly, causing panic nationwide particularly among his fanbase.

After police launched an investigation, it was revealed that Shatta Wale had staged the incident to draw attention to the prophecy.

Shatta Wale was then arrested and charged with publication of false news and causing fear and panic

He was remanded in custody and later fined GH₵2,000 or faced a 3-month jail term.

The prophet, Jesus Ahuofe, was also arrested and detained briefly.

Death prophecies in Ghana, particularly among celebrities is nothing new.Popular musicians such as Sarkodie, Wendy Shay, Stonbwoy among others have received prophecies from different men of God in the past years.

In 2018, Ghanaian rapper and legend, Prophet Cosmos Walker Affrangave a death prophecy about him saying he will die in a car crash hence urged him to pray. Though he didn't reply, fans and netizens slammed the pastor calling the prophecy as fear-mongering.

Ebony Reigns (Priscilla Opoku-Kwarteng) also met an untimely death after she was involved in a car crash on the Sunyani road in February 2018.This was after Prophet Nigel Gaisie, widely called Eagle Prophet prophesied in late 2017 that the dancehall artist will die in a car crash.

He wasn't the only pastor that had predicted her death.Several others including rev Owusu Bempah, Founder and Leader of Glorious Word Power Ministry International, issued a prophecy that, a "great musician" will die soon. Another prophecy about Ebony's death which was met with heavy backlash was one from Prophet Agyei Agyeman Fredua of Rafa Ministries posted on Facebook in 2017 that “God will soon strike Ebony down.”

Wendy Shay was also prophesied to by Jesus Ahocfe in 2020 that if she doesn't give her life to Christ, she will be kidnapped and killed for money rituals.

“Tell Wendy Shay that if she does not give her life to God, before December, some people will kidnap her to acquire powers. Spiritually, I see her being kidnapped and placed in a small room for 21 days and crying, after which she will be sacrificed. Wendy Shay, this is a bad year for her—tell her.”Wendy in response visited the pastor's church and stated that “God’s grace and favour can exceed common sense.”

She explained that while many fans urged her to ignore the prophecy and rely on logic, she believed that divine intervention could go beyond human reasoning. Wendy added:

“God reveals to redeem.”

Stonebwoy also received a prophecy from Nigel Gaisie about an impending spiritual attack urging him to pray.

The 'Jejereje' singer did not respond publicly however netizens did with some questioning the authenticity of the prophecy.

Former IGP Dampare following the rife in doom prophecies and predictions from pastors, issue a directive in banning public declaration of doom prophecies in December 2021. This was to deal with rise in death prophecies which was causing fear and panic, especially during 31st December watchnight services.

Since then, the police have reiterated and enforced the directive annually, with December 27th now recognized as “Prophecy Communication Compliance Day”.

Meanwhile, Shatta Wale has tipped Ghanaian rapper, Sarkodie born Michael Owusu Addo, as the 'Greatest of All Time (GOAT) of all time in the rap industry.

Naming Medikal as his favourite Ghanaian rapper, the 'Gringo' hitmaker also acknowledged Sarkodie’s consistency and longevity, which he said have cemented the rapper’s influence and dominance in Ghana’s entertainment industry.

“My favourite rapper is Medikal. His music is for Gen Z, but if we are talking about the best of all time, I would give it to Sarkodie,” Shatta Wale stated, he revealed during an interview with U.S.-based Ghanaian fashion critic Firestick, which was published on June 25.

He believes Medikal can take over Sarkodie's reign if the 'yes Sir' hitmaker decides to resign from doing rap music in Ghana.

According to him, many of the new generation rappers copy Medikal’s style and energy.

“Medikal will be able to succeed Sarkodie hands down. What Medikal does is what most of the boys learn. The way Medikal raps is how plenty of the boys also rap. It’s just that we don’t speak the truth here,” he said.
