Sarkodie has angered the Krobos for his blatant disrespect to them in a new song entitled ‘ Jennifer Lomotey’. In the song, Ghana’s official best rapper expanded on an age old myth, which says Krobo women are promiscuous.
The Krobos have demanded an apology from Sarkodie with immediate effect. They said, ”We expect an artiste of such international stature like Sarkodie to know better and not to play games with such sensitive issues.
Every tribe may have a myth, but his attempt to commercialize the so-called myth at our expense to make financial gains and profit for himself is where we have the problem. This is deliberate. This is calculated. This is unacceptable in this 21st century.”
The citizens assured Sarkodie of dealing with him drastically hinting that they have outlined several measures in their quest to deal with the rapper for demeaning their descent.
“We want Sarkodie and his team to know that they will regret for making mockery of us. We have lined up a number of actions to deal ruthlessly with them. We are adopting a number of measures to seek redress.”
Tribal sentiments have serious repercussions in our part of the continent and we think it will be the best interest of Sarkodie to apologise and revise that line in the song.
