Musician Belinda Nana Ekua Amoah, popularly known as Mzbel, has spoken about her disagreement with the Deputy Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Tourism Authority, Abeiku Santana, explaining that her response to his remarks was justified.

In an interview on Mothers FM, she indicated that she harbours no personal animosity toward Abeiku but felt compelled to stand up for herself.

“I don’t have any problem with Abeiku Santana,” she said. “He said something I didn’t like, and I responded to him accordingly.”

She further suggested that people need to be mindful of the company they keep, particularly when their image or brand is at stake.

“If someone shows their true colours to you or against your brand, there is no need to have anything to do with him,” Mzbel stated.

Mzbel noted that her reaction was not triggered by a single remark but by a pattern of comments Abeiku had made over time.

“Before he called me a former musician, he had previously said some other things about me,” she said. “He had already spoiled my name on several occasions.”

She added that although she was aware of some of the earlier remarks, she initially chose to ignore them.

“I heard them, but I did not take them seriously because I didn’t hear him make those comments myself,” she explained.

According to her, the latest response was prompted by statements she personally heard and considered disrespectful.

Ghanaian dancehall artiste Shatta Wale advised Ghanaian musicians in 2023, to avoid beef and comparisons in the music industry.

In a tweet on Tuesday, July 4, he said Ghanaian music would be better if artists avoided comparisons and needless beefs.

"This music thing in Ghana will be better for them if they stop this comparisons and beefs !!!

The comments come amid years of controversies and 'beefs' Shatta Wale has waged with other artists including Stonebwoy, Samini and Sarkodie.

“Don't touch shatta wale and shatta wale won't touch you !! Simple Understanding,” he wrote.

The self-acclaimed dancehall king added that he has made enough money for himself and is not interested in the dramas that sometimes plague the industry.

"I am not part of their drama !!! I AM MY OWN BOSS AND WINNING EVERYDAY INDEPENDENTLY,” he tweeted.

Ghanaian Highlife musician, Tinny, has expressed his support for Shatta Wale's decision to attack netizens who attack him.

According to Tinny, Shatta Wale is an embodiment of serenity, but that will not be a reason for him to entertain unwarranted attacks on social media.

In an interview with Nana Romeo on Okay FM shared on social media on July 18, 2025, Tiny said,

“I tell him to go all out. He should attack anyone who attacks him. Also, he should be at peace with anyone who is equally at peace with him.

"This isn't about the Ga tribe because that is how everyone should live. He shouldn't tolerate any form of nonsense, and that is the best way."

Ghanaian media personality MzGee has also described individuals who hide behind ghost accounts to troll people on social media as those who lack the courage to be bold.

Her comments come on the back of an attack on social media after she shared a video of herself in a joyous mood.

On her Gee O’clock show, the broadcaster questioned the courage of trolls who lack the guts to confront people with their real identities.

“If you want to do drama, let’s do drama face-to-face. Don’t hide. If you’re going to be disrespectful, be bold enough to come with your real name and picture.”

“If you're bold enough to go and insult people, come with your real face. Let’s see who we’re dealing with,” she stated. “Why do you go and create ghost accounts to talk trash? Me—who am I in the scheme of affairs—that you’d create a whole ghost account just to come and insult me?” the broadcaster shared.

Also, Ghanaian artiste Wendy Shay shared some challenges she faced due to social media trolls.

According to her, netizens chided her over their belief that she was doing all she could with her music career to imitate the late Ebony Reigns.

Thus, some family members were shy to associate with her.

“At a point, my mum asked me to quit music and return to Germany because the trolling was overwhelming and it affected everyone in my family,” she said. “Some of my relatives were even kind of shy to associate with me at the time.”

“Imagine they take your face, edit it to make you look like an old woman, and start mocking and laughing at you. They even said I wasn’t talented enough. It was crazy. I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy, but it built me,” Wendy shared.
