Information reaching 3news.com also indicates that the self-acclaimed dancehall king, born Charles Nii Mensah, charged the Minister GH¢ 80,000 for Saturday night’s performance.
That amount was exclusive of his air travel to and fro Tamale.
Shatta Wale, who is known to be moving with a crew of nine, arrived in Tamale in the Northern Region and entertained party supporters with his infectious “Mahama Paper”, a hit track that has received massive airplay, most recently on National Democratic Congress’ campaign trail.
A suite for the show stopper and his team cost GH¢ 2,000 with the same suite booked for the two Northern Region artistes namely Fancy Gadam and Don Sigli.
A total of twenty rooms ranging from GH¢5,500 to GH¢500 a night were booked in the Four Star Ganaa Hotel for dignitaries who thronged Tamale for the campaign launch.
The stage, lighting and sounds for the launch were also rented at a cost of GH¢10,000 with thousands of GH¢ 10 fuel coupons designed in party colours and the Minister’s picture distributed to riders in the Tamale Metropolis.
