According to the "Kakai" hit-maker, although he has a cordial relationship with the two, it was inappropriate for them to spring a surprise on him in that manner.

He said: "Samini is my friend and if i want to go to his show, i will call him, a week or two weeks before but you can't move into my show and expect that..."

At the launch of the "Reign" album about a fortnight ago, Samini tweeted that he and Stonebowy tried to spring a surprise performance at Shatta Wale's event but they were refused the gesture after waiting for about an hour.

Shatta Wale in a response apologised to the two, saying that he was not aware that they were at the concert.

However, in an interview on Accra-based Joy FM, Shatta Wale, citing the actions of Samini and Stonebowy on that night, expressed concern over the disregard for time by some artiste in the industry.

He said: "I went to Simini's show, I call him like two weeks my team called his team to arrange everything, the same to Stonebowy, so I wonder how you wanna come to my show, you even won't send me a text message, i don't see that as a surprise because I am a very serious person."

He noted, however, that he reserved slots for artistes who wished to perform at the progamme but only a few turned up.
