Meek Mill issued an apology after a music video of his stirred controversy. On Monday morning, Sam Okudzeto Ablakwa, Ghana’s former deputy education minister, slammed Meek and the officials who let him film in Jubilee House governmental building.
The building serves as both Ghana’s official residence and office for the president, and many people felt filming the video there was disrespectful. Ablakwa wrote, "All those responsible for this despicable desecration of the Jubilee House by Meek Mill must be fired immediately. How do those explicit lyrics from the president’s lectern project Ghana positively? Is Ghana’s seat of government no longer a high security installation?"
Meek, who publicly spoke about his love for the country during and after his visit, quickly apologized for offending anyone. He took the video down and issued a statement, "My apologies to the people if any disrespect! We still gonna push to make the connection between black people in America and Africa…what I’m trying to do is more than a video and you should see coming soon! My apologies to the the office also!"
Meek added, "I’m just not here for no separation of anything black…we already separated enough and don’t understand each others cultures…let’s used [sic] this to help fix that and not more judgement towards each other!"
Shatta Wale showed support to Meek with a tweet that read, "The meek shall inherit the earth Dreamchasers ..Do your thing my g Just remember Ghana is a village Same ppl that showed you love now are complaining about a video you did to project Ghana for us .. THEY STILL SLAVES IN THEIR MINDS."
