Sarkodie is Shallow, Not Sincere About Begging For Akuapem Poloo - Romeo

Romeo has blasted Sarkodie for his "shallow" plea on behalf of Akuapem Poloo.

The rap god had earlier taken to social media to plead that the socialite is released after she was convicted for her nude photos with her son last year.

He took to his Twitter to express his concern, as he noted that it is harsh to separate mother and child for the flimsiest of reasons.

“I think it’s a little harsh to separate a child from the mum just because of pictures taken... would want to plead with the law to pardon our sister.” He wrote.

While speaking on GhanaWeb TV’s entertainment review show Bloggers’ Forum, Romeo noted that Sarkodie's nonchalant plea could worsen the case.

According to him, Sarkodie is not serious about his plea as he is making the whole matter seem like a joke.

“Sarkodie's tweet is the weakest tweet,” he unequivocally told the host of the show, Abrantepa.

“I feel Sarkodie is deep when he raps but when he comments on issues of such nature, he is very shallow. ‘Just picture taken’ sounds like there is absolutely nothing wrong with what Akuapem Poloodid… Like seriously!”

In the same vein, Andy Vortia, Counsel for Akuapem Poloo has cautioned celebrities championing the hashtag #FreeAkuapemPoloo campaign on social media.

He noted that comments by some of the celebrities championing the campaign are so harsh that it can go a long way to affect the sentence of Akuapem Poloo if the judge happens to see or read what the celebrities are saying or writing on social media.

“Her [Akuapem Poloo] fate is in the hands of the judge now, [the judge] will confine herself within the parameters of the law. The law says she [Akuapem Poloo] can be fined, jailed or both...I as the lawyer will be pleading with the judge in court and not on social media…”
