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.
