Don’t be deceived that money is evil; make more before you die - Shatta Wale

YEN.com.gh has sighted a video of acclaimed Dancehall King of Ghana, Shatta Wale, in which he offers advice to his fans.

Shatta Wale shared this video on the internet urging his fans to make sure they make more money in life.

He added that many people have said money is evil, but that is not true because money is actually a necessity.

Shatta Wale’s comment about money in this video brings to mind the popular scripture at 1 Timothy chapter 6: 10. That scripture says: “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.” (NIV).

Therefore, the scripture makes it clear that money in itself is not bad, but rather, the love for it – that is what makes people do all manner of things – whether good or bad for money is what is evil.

Shatta Wale added that no one should be deceived that money is bad, and so for him, that is the topmost on his agenda. His fans on social media have responded to his ‘sermon’ on money.

Shatta Wale and Michy took the internet by storm on April 16 when they declared an end to their relationship.

According to Wale, Shatta Michy was in the habit of chasing him around with a knife. Michy also claimed that Shatta Wale abuses, beats and threatens her with a knife.

Now with Michy away, it is believed that Shatta Wale would get more time and spend all on making money.
