Since news broke that Shatta Wale has slapped his bodyguard, Ghanaians have been talking.

What muddied the waters was when the affected bodyguard came out to blast Ghanaians and the media for being loud-mouthed on his physical abuse.

The bodyguard whose name was mentioned as Steve in a Facebook livestream questioned “If Shatta Wale has slapped me is it your ears?”
