Ghanaian Dancehall artiste, Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jnr., popularly known as Shatta Wale has brought forth another commendable initiative to help reduce the unemployment rate among the Ghanaian youth. Some months ago, the multiple award winner posted a transport business project called “SHAXI”, which he told everyone to watch out for. This statement created divided opinions among social media users.
On Wednesday, December 8, 2021, the multiple award-winning Dancehall artiste together with his team, colleagues and industry friends officially launched his SHAXI ride at the Alisa Hotel in Accra.
Present at the launching of SHAXI were Shatta Wale’s father (Shatta Capo), Medikal, Fela Makafui, Nana Aba Anamoah, Serwaa Amihere, KMJ, Kwame A Plus, Bola Ray, Flowking Stone, among others. Shatta Wale sees this project as a way of appreciating the Ghanaian youths for sticking with him through thick and thin.
Shatta Wale later went on social media to enlighten his followers about the SHAXI initiative. On Facebook, he posted “Well let me share this story with you today. Everybody that knows me knows I love the youth of Ghana and I always want to see them doing well. I want to see the boys and girls in the ghettos move from being unemployed into having gainful employment. That’s how the Shaxi dream was born. My team and myself set out to create a sustainable business with a focus on providing employment for the theming unemployed Ghanaians. That’s our drive and not profits. At the end day, we want to make an impact and leave our mark. Shaxi is for not just Shatta Wale and friends, it’s a Ghanaian project for Ghanaians, so lets all embrace it and make it happen. Thank you for your support and thank you to the entire team behind the Shaxi project, couldn’t have done this without you. #Shaxi 🚙🚙 It’s time to ride”
The SHAXI Driver App is now available on Good Play Store and Apple App Store.
