Chief Biney, the former Deputy National Organiser of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has issued an apology to business mogul Dr Osei Kwame Despite on behalf of Dancehall artist Shatta Wale.

In a viral video on TikTok, Chief Biney paused a live radio discussion to kneel and beg for forgiveness on behalf of Shatta Wale.

Chief Biney apologises to Despite over Shatta’s insults

He earnestly requested that the founder of Despite Media and Despite Automobiles forgive the 40-year-old father of three for the derogatory comments he had previously made about him.

Chief Biney also advised Shatta Wale’s fans to be careful with their words when speaking about Dr Osei Kwame Despite, emphasising that the business mogul deserves respect.

“I want to humbly plead with Boss Osei Kwame Despite, wherever he may be, to kindly take what I am about to say into consideration. On behalf of my brother, Nii Armah (Shatta Wale), I ask for forgiveness for any derogatory comments he may have made against him. I plead that he forgive him from his heart, because, at the end of the day, he is like a son to him,” Chief Biney stated.

Akwasi Aboagye claims Shatta overcharges for shows

This apology came in the wake of an incident in October 2023 when Shatta Wale launched an attack on Despite Media and its owners, including Dr Osei Kwame Despite, as well as broadcaster Akwasi Aboagye.

Shatta Wale’s outburst was triggered after Aboagye, a broadcaster associated with one of the Despite Media brands.

He questioned Shatta Wale’s claim that he had been paid £80,000 for his performance at the Ghana Music Awards UK 2023, asserting that the figure was exaggerated.

In response, Shatta Wale angrily insulted both Aboagye and the management of Despite Media.
