Meanwhile, some people on social media began speculating that the musician might be queer after they saw the video.
Others, however, believed that Shatta Wale and his friend only shared an unromantic kiss, therefore, disputing claims of the singer being queer.

However, some fans are still not pleased and are not buying his explanation. They believe this is direct support for the LGBTQ community – something they believe should be barred.
u turn ur celebrity into madness.
How can u kiss a man in the mouth, what type of love is that ?
u said , u are a child of God, then show us in the bibble that kissing another man is not a sin.
What are u trying to tell u fans, that being a gay is good.
Shameless leader.

The Ningo Prampram MP, Sam George, who has been an advocate for the Promotion of Proper Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values 2021 bill also known as the anti-LGBTQI+ bill, also reacted to the video.
He noted that he suspects the “Ayoo” hitmaker was high on drugs when he decided to kiss his fellow man on the lips.
“E be like broad man smoke the wrong leaves. Maybe e go do snap take explain na w3i di3r, I’m not handstand, (sic)” he tweeted.
This video came hours after Shatta Wale posted a video of himself and his new girlfriend making out.
“Leave me make I chop love sha, (sic)”, he wrote alongside numerous emojis expressing how happy he was to have found love again.
