Ghanaian dancehall artiste Shatta Wale has expressed his displeasure after Jomoro Member of Parliament Dorcas Affo-Toffey interrupted his performance during the 2026 NkrumahFest celebration in Nkroful.
The incident occurred while the musician was entertaining a large crowd at the event, with videos from the occasion showing the MP approaching him on stage during his performance.
According to reports, Dorcas Affo-Toffey, who also serves as Deputy Minister of Transport, appeared to inform Shatta Wale that his allocated performance time had come to an end.
The exact conversation between the two could not be clearly heard in the available footage because of the loud music and noise from the audience. However, Shatta Wale appeared visibly unhappy following the interaction.
The artiste responded while still on stage, making it clear that he wanted to continue his performance for the audience.
At one point, Shatta Wale sat at the edge of the stage while continuing to engage with his fans. The crowd remained energetic, with several people cheering and recording the incident on their mobile phones.
The brief confrontation attracted attention because of the public nature of the exchange between the popular musician and the sitting Member of Parliament.
Dorcas Affo-Toffey later took the microphone and addressed the audience before Shatta Wale returned to the centre of the stage and continued his performance.
The incident has since generated discussions on social media, with viewers offering different interpretations of what happened.
Some reactions focused on the importance of respecting the time allocated to performers during major events, while others argued that an interruption in the middle of a performance could affect the atmosphere created by an artiste on stage.
However, the available footage does not provide a clear recording of the entire conversation between Shatta Wale and the MP, making it difficult to independently establish everything that was said during their brief interaction.
NkrumahFest is held in Nkroful, the hometown of Ghana’s first President, Dr Kwame Nkrumah, and features cultural and entertainment activities.
Shatta Wale’s performance was among the entertainment highlights of the event, attracting a large audience of fans who had gathered to watch the dancehall artiste.
The incident has added another talking point to this year’s celebration, with the exchange between the musician and the Jomoro MP quickly becoming a subject of discussion online.
Despite the interruption, Shatta Wale eventually continued entertaining the audience, bringing his performance to the crowd that had gathered for the celebration.
The episode also highlights the challenges organisers can face in managing performances, especially at events involving several activities and public officials, where strict schedules may have to be followed.
Neither the available footage nor the reports reviewed provides a full account of any further discussion between the two after the incident.
