Event Company to sue Shatta Wale for $50000

It is emerging that managers of a Ghanaian Events Company in Norway have threatened to sue Ghana’s dancehall King, Shatta Wale for a breach of contract.

According to a report put up by Ghanacreativearts.com, 5K Productions is suing the dancehall artiste for causing financial loss to their company.

Reports say the company entered an agreement with the musician to perform in Sweden as part of his Europe tour in October but for some strange reasons, Shatta Wale cancelled the show at the eleventh hour without any proper explanations to organizers.

“As part of Shatta Wale’s European tour, he was supposed to perform in Sweden which we invested by paying him, booking the venue for the show, publicity and other expenses in connection with the performance”, a source close to the company is quoted to have said.

The source added that after Shatta cancelled the show, he only returned the fee paid him without compensating the production house for the losses they incurred while preparing to host him.

However, the Chief Executive of 5K Productions, Daniel Ashitey Quaye in an interview with Ghanacreativearts.com disclosed that all attempts to retrieve the expenses from Shatta Wale have proved futile.

The CEO said he believes taking the matter to court is the only option available to him.

Daniel Ashitey Quaye in his interview stated that other production houses and event organizers linked to the organization of Shatta Wale’s European tour project are all in support of his court action.
