Following the success of Shatta Wale’s ShattaFest concert at the Black Star Square, renowned preacher Sonnie Badu has praised the Dancehall musician for drawing what he described as an unprecedented crowd in Ghana’s history.
According to Sonnie Badu, not even the historic Independence Day celebration led by Dr. Kwame Nkrumah drew a crowd as massive as that of Shatta Wale’s birthday concert.
In a post shared on Instagram on October 20, 2025, he wrote:
“It’s never happened in the history of Ghana, not even on the day of our independence with Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. This is huge. @shattawalenima needs to be studied. We all go throw money for ground, feed the streets and they got your back. Paaa paaa paaa! I think Ghana is evolving and soon we will take the centre stage again,” he wrote.
Tens of thousands of fans filled Independence Square on October 18, 2025, for Shatta Wale’s birthday concert themed, “ShattaFest 2025 x Shattabration: The King Calls.”
Although the event was scheduled to start at 4:00 p.m., fans began arriving hours earlier, with the entire venue and surrounding streets packed by sunset.
The show featured a star-studded lineup including Sarkodie, Samini, Wendy Shay, Medikal, Kelvynboy, Amerado, DarkoVibes, Tinny, JZyNo, Kwame Yogot, and DopeNation, among several others.
The concert wrapped up around 7:05 a.m. on October 19, 2025.
