Ghanaian artiste, Stonebwoy, has shared his thoughts about the arrest of fellow music stars, Shatta Wale and Medikal.
Stonebwoy in an interview reacting to the arrest of Shatta Wale and Medikal said that there are rules governing a place and there are consequences for every action.
Recall that, Shatta Wale was picked up by the police a few weeks ago after staging a fake gun attack on himself in East Legon as a publicity stunt.
He was detained, along with three members of his team, for allegedly spreading the news on social media.
He was charged with inducing fear and panic and was remanded in police detention for one week, but he and his team were eventually granted bail of GHc100,000 each.
Medikal, on the other hand, was detained on social media for brandishing a weapon. He was tried and remanded in police detention for five days before being given bail of GHc100,000.
In response to what occurred to his colleagues, Stonebwoy remarked in an interview with 3FM that every step taken by a man has consequences and that one must be cautious before carrying out any plan.
According to the Bhim nation leader, there are better methods to deal with issues, even when one has the legal authority to do so, in order to avoid running afoul of the law.
He believes, however, that Shatta Wale and Medikal would come out publicly to discuss their experiences in the future, in order to educate their fans about the consequences of their actions.
He also that many people was detained by the authorities as well. He said that he was unconcerned when his friends were arrested.

He claims, however, that musicians were detained with greater haste and speed than anyone else. He used Chris Brown and other well-known musicians as examples.
He claimed to have seen musicians sweeping and gardening in the Ashaiman neighbourhood as if they were bored because they had been arrested.
“Musicians aren’t the only ones who have been detained. What I’ve noticed is that they arrest musicians all around the world much more quickly than you might expect. Chris Brown had also been detained.
Many of my coworkers had completed community service and swept while supervised. You can probably guess what happened. Actually, I’m more cautious now. You must be cautious as a person to prevent getting into problems.”
