An emotional headline performance
Ghana News Agency reported that Shatta Wale arrived on stage dressed in white and performed for hours. The agency described him becoming tearful as he looked across the stadium during his set.
The audience included members of his Shatta Movement fanbase and other music enthusiasts. Their participation was part of a concert built around both the artist’s songs and his relationship with supporters.
Away from the musical lineup, Angel Online reported that actress Nana Ama McBrown appeared at the event. The all-white theme extended the birthday atmosphere beyond the stage and into the audience.

Accra follows an earlier Volta Region show
The official Shaxi event listing placed this edition at Accra Sports Stadium on 17 October and advertised an all-white dress code. That date and venue distinguish it from the earlier MoMoFest X ShattaFest at Adaklu in the Volta Region.
In GNA’s 4 October report from Adaklu, Shatta Wale performed Stonebwoy’s “Putuu” and encouraged artists and fans to support one another. That rendition belonged to the earlier gathering, rather than the Accra programme covered here.
For fans catching up after the weekend, the Accra collaborations offer a direct route back to the music: “Jeje,” “Sika,” “One Corner” and “Body Fi Body.” More releases are available through XTRAfrica’s Ghana music collection.
