Ghanaian musician Kirani Ayat said he reached out to the government for support before shooting his Guda music video but he was turned down.

The video was shot in northern Ghana and features scenic views and showcases the local culture.

On Tuesday Ayat lashed out at the president after he shared a promo video:

"The President of Ghana has used my video 'Guda' in this ad to promote Ghana. I was actively reaching out to the Ministry of Tourism in 2018/19 to use this video to push tourism in the North and got no reply, yet today it’s in an ad and no one reached out to me for permission," he wrote.

Scenes in the musician's video featuring women posing on top of a giant tree and others dancing have been featured in the tourism advert.
