Perspective

Accra Invasion Project
Shatta Wale on the 16th of September 2024 announced the hunt for talents in Accra the Capital of Ghana who need some push and support to make their dreams a reality. The project name is “Accra Invasion Project” (AIP). So far he discovered 9 young talents including Papillon Blood, Shattonzy, Zicoranking, JoeQuaye, Blakid, Boy Cray, Kinjunia, Dosted Gennah, and Sanaa the only female among them.[42]
The “ACCRA INVASION PROJECT” (AIP), is propelled exclusively by grassroots support, unaided by government or elite backing.
This self-funded endeavor seeks to inspire and equip Ghana's youth while stimulating employment within the arts industry, a neglected sector in Ghana. I encourage Ghanaian youths to transcend political affiliations and cultivate self-reliance.
A key takeaway: substantial impact is achievable without substantial initial investment; collective youth empowerment can drive transformative growth.
