Shatta Wale swerves Bulldog

After assuring his fans to stay calm and allow the police do their work, Shatta Wale was nowhere to be found during his Manager, Lawrence Esiamah Hanson aka Bulldog’s first court appearance in Accra over the murder of artiste manager, Fennec Okyere.

Bulldog, who was last week arrested by the police as a prime suspect in the ongoing investigations of the murder of Fennec Okyere, made his first appearance in an Accra Magistrate Court to determine the case, with 'Greats' gurus in the music fraternity showing up to support a Fellow, except his own Shatta Wale.

Though the dancehall artiste had earlier in a tweet asked all his fans to pray for his Manager Bulldog, most people who turned up at the court hearing were disappointed by the absence of the dancehall king hit-maker.

Well, Shatta Wale might have had other important businesses or things to attend to, but at least, his appearance would have added a little more to the support and encouragement received by his manager ( a suspect).

Although there may be reasons for his absence, but as it stands now, Shatta Wale after the assurance of calmness and support for his boss will now have to answer to his fans why he did not make an appearance in court.

That notwithstanding, the court after hearing the prosecution’s plea for more time to further investigate the crime, the suspect has been remanded and hearing adjourned to June 2, 2014.

Fennec Okyere was found dead in his house at Spintex Road in Accra on March 13, 2014. His body was found in a pool of blood.

Lawrence Esiamah Hanson aka Bulldog is the manager of Dancehall artiste, Shatta Wale and CEO of BullHaus Entertainment. He, according to police, sent threatening text messages to the deceased and has on radio threatened to send his boys after Fennec Okyere.
