Rapper Medikal and Dancehall star Shatta Wale have faced criticism on social media for their ostentatious display of wealth upon their return from a successful UK concert.

The duo, fresh from a sold-out show at the Indigo O2, faced backlash after videos emerged of them showering cash on fans at Kotoka International Airport and in the midst of traffic.

While some defended the gesture as beneficial in tough times, others condemned it as reckless and potentially dangerous.See reactions below:

"I'm sad by tomorrow some people will be removing their mouth somewhere… IGP, we greet you oo," one social media user posted.

"He would have been arrested and arraigned in court if he was in Nigeria. The exact cause of Bob Risky's arrest. The currency must be respected," another social media user posted.

"God have mercy on these men who have 5 cedis notes to spray in public but can't take care of their kids and mothers. It's a pity I'm sad," another said.

"Why can't you give the money to them personally?" another added.

"Those saying this must stop, please talk for yourselves. Ghana is hard; the street sometimes needs those coins to hold body. Don't come spoil things for anybody because you're okay. Not everybody does hard work and earns good money. Allow the street," one defended.
