AMG’s Medikal and the Ghanaian superstar and head of the Shatta Movement Family put on a show yesterday night that drew a massive crowd that nearly filled the Accra Sports Stadium to capacity.
Shatta Wale was moved to tears by the show’s large turnout and the adoration of his followers, which was called the “Freedom Wave Concert.”
Tickets for the Freedom Concert were available for as little as GHC 20.00 and GHC 50.00. VVIP events require GHC 100 in admission fees.
Additional performers at the concert included Black Sherif, Wendy Shay, Quamina MP, Kofi Jamar, Phrimpong, and Joey B.
After Wizkid failed to turn up a few weeks prior to the event, Shatta Wale expressed optimism that the stadium would be packed.

“…if we want to fill the Accra Sports Stadium we can fill it but when we fill it they should say we have filled it because it is not easy…this December the fans can come and fill the other side. We want to invite everybody to come to celebrate Christmas with us,” the dancehall artiste said.
“I believe companies will pay huge sums to see the crowd lined up like this…all you see at the stadium is love…All those people you see at the stadium are like family members. We don’t stress to even get these numbers to the stadium…this show (last year) we put out the flyer a week to the show. We didn’t do a billboard or promo.”
Meanwhile, Shatta Wale has thanked his loyal fans for showing up for his concert, writing on Twitter: “Thank you SM Fans. Thank you again loyal blood SM fans. I owe you my life.”
Shatta Wale, who never displayed signs of exhaustion, was still being begged for by fans as the event continued till after 7am.
