Artist Donates GHC10K at Youth Peaceful Unity Soccer Gala
Music icon, Stonebwoy showed up at the Youth Peaceful Elections Unity Soccer Gala held at the Kawukudi Astroturf Park in Nima on Monday, September 23, 2024.
The multiple award-winning singer made a generous gesture after adding an amount of GHC10,000 to the prize money to be shared among the top three teams.
Fadama 133 emerged champions of the competition after defeating Sabon Zongo in the final of the 16-team championship, which started on September 21 and ended on September 23.
Stonebwoy, known in real life as Livingstone Satekla, surprised the fans and young footballers after showing up to support the event aimed at promoting a peaceful election in December.
The TGMA artist of the year delivered a powerful speech, edging the youth of the country to put Ghana first during the democratic exercise and stay away from anything that will lead to trouble.
He also trumpeted the message of avoiding tribal politics, claiming whether you are from the north, south, east, or west, are all Ghanaians.
Before leaving, Stonebwoy took a moment to perform one of his hit records before displaying a little bit of his footballing skills. He then pledged an amount of GHC 5000 to the winner, GHC 3000 to the runners-up, and GHC 2000 to the third-placed team.
The event dubbed, One Goal, One Vote, thrilled fans around Nima and its environs, where Stonebwoy has most of his fans from. Unfortunately, his team Ashaiman could not shine in the competition.
Stonebwoy who was spotted leaving the Kawukudi Astro Turf Park in a fleet of cars with his personnel bodyguards and a motorcade providing security courted controversy after a video of him throwing money at fans.
The BHIM Nation boss’ car was mobbed by many fans who wanted to catch a glimpse of him before his departure. To show his love and appreciation for the fans’ support, Stonebwoy came out of his Toyota Land Cruiser’s sunroof to spray money into the air, which many people rushed to grab as he exited.
Recently, Stonebwoy claimed that he disliked throwing money at fans because he finds it disrespectful and preferred to put money in his fans’ hands. He noted that the habit of throwing money at fans was a dangerous act, as people would end up injuring themselves during the melee that might ensue.
The musician received criticism from Ghanaians on social media for his gesture after his recent remarks about the act, with many people calling him out for his inconsistency.
