Shatta Wale<\/strong> has publicly begged Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the incoming president of Nigeria, to adopt him. <\/p>\n

On March 29, he made his appeal on Twitter, having noted that netizens claim the two of them share a striking resemblance.<\/p>\n

Shatta Wale asked the president-elect to come and adopt him as his son from Ghana while declaring his desire to sing one of his popular songs in tribute to him.<\/p>\n

In a related development, Basketmouth has eulogised Shatta Wale for giving him a free verse some time ago when he dropped a track (he had previously indicated on 3FM that he used to be a rapper before he transitioned to comedy).<\/p>\n

The veteran comedian and entertainer mentioned that Shatta Wale told him to retain everything, including the royalties, and that he won\u2019t charge him or take anything from him.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Basketmuth appreciated the Ghanaian Dancehall artiste effusively for his modest actions toward him. He said;<\/p>\n

\u201cMe and Shatta Wale, the way he responded\u2026.Oh yes I\u2019ve known him for a while but we\u2019ve never had the opportunity to really speak properly.<\/p>\n

And I told him that, dude I\u2019m working on this album I would like to drop and I sent him the song, he loved it, he was done with it under few hours he had given me and he nailed it\u201d<\/p>\n

And the guy said something quite interesting, you know what? It\u2019s for free, you don\u2019t need to pay me any royalty or anything take it it is yours. Nobody has ever done that before and to think the he is Ghanaian brother it made me humble\u201d \u2013 he said.<\/p>\n
