Ghanaian musician King Paluta has broken his silence on the London concert controversy, insisting that the backlash against him is part of a broader and deliberate attempt to damage his reputation.
Addressing the issue in an interview with Zionfelix as monitored by MyNewsGh, the rapper questioned the motives behind the allegations levelled against him.
“Those who know me question why these allegations are being made, and that alone should signal you that this is a troubling situation,” he said.
Paluta suggested that the criticism did not start with the London incident but had roots in political misunderstandings from the previous election period.
According to him, accusations that he had taken money from Dr Mahamudu Bawumia during campaign activities opened the door for sustained attacks.
“They claim I accepted money from Bawumia while campaigning, and that sparked a wave of controversy aimed at tarnishing my image,” he explained.
He described what he sees as a calculated online effort to portray him negatively, pointing to trends on social media platforms.
“I’ve noticed people using my picture on TikTok with a sad tune, narrating how one should remain humble when lifted by God. This feels orchestrated,” Paluta stated.
Despite the growing scrutiny, the musician said support from industry colleagues has reassured him.
“Colleagues have reached out to ask what’s happening, as they know my character and that I haven’t wronged anyone. It’s perplexing and painful to experience all this,” he added.
