Dr. Jira Lehman and her husband Reggie Lockstone
Dr. Zilla Rehman, wife of veteran Ghanaian musician, Reggie Rockstone, has responded to singer Shatta Wale over comments she made about their business that tend to undermine the social status of Waakye.
According to her, when her husband Reggie Rockstone told her that Shatta Wale had made negative comments about Warkie’s business, she was furious and expressed her displeasure, but did not share it publicly. He says he didn’t.
She said Shatta Wale enjoys speaking publicly about people’s issues to get public attention, but his comments did not sit well with her.
In an interview on the Urban Blend program broadcast on 3fm and monitored by Ghanaweb, the daughter of the late president, Dr Zira Rehman, was furious at Shatta Wale for criticizing her business.
During the interview, the host of the show, Black Rasta, said, “How did you feel when you heard Shatta Wale say that this person lives in his father’s house and is a tycoon who sells workye?” ?” he asked.
Dr. Jira Rehman replied: So when Reggie first said it I thought it was crap, so what’s that to you? How does it enrich and help you? Why are people willing to talk about what people are doing to slander people, so what happens? Didn’t you grow up in your father’s house? ”
She continued: What if I sell something like Waakye? Am I not representing Ghana? Maybe I’m expressing something general? Is there something we own that puts us on the map? what are you doing? When I’m working hard, do you have the right to come and stand up and talk about what I’m doing? We eat worky every day. Worky is Ghana. Bringing Reggie Rockstone’s work to the world. ”
Reggie Rockstone’s Waakye business is one of the country’s favorite eateries with branches in some parts of the country including Accra and Cape Coast.
