A brief exchange between President John Mahama and Nigerian singer Asake has caught the attention of social media users following a recent firearm-related incident at a public event in Accra.
The interaction occurred on December 30 at a supercar exhibition, where the President met the musician in the presence of Ibrahim Mahama, Richard Nii Armah Quaye, John Dumelo and other guests.
In a video that has since circulated online, Mahama appeared surprised during introductions, asking, “Ooh, so he is the one the guy fired the gun for?”
When this was confirmed, Asake laughed before expressing regret, saying, “We are not happy about what happened.”
President Mahama responded calmly, telling the singer, “Don’t worry… the law is the law,” while smiling.
The comment comes after the Criminal Investigation Department’s Cyber Vetting Team announced the arrest of a suspect linked to a viral video showing a firearm being discharged at the El-Wak Stadium on December 28, 2025.
In a statement dated December 30, police said Abubakari Sadick, popularly known as “Cyborg,” was arrested a day later at Adenta.
“The suspect was arrested for possession and discharging of a firearm,” the police said, adding that “a Derya MK-12 firearm with registration number 22-GHA-1162 has been retrieved and secured as evidence.”
