Shatta Wale has broken his silence following the seizure of his Lamborghini Urus by the Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO), describing the agency’s public narrative as false and malicious.

In a fiery TikTok live, Shatta Wale directly accused EOCO’s Acting Executive Director, Raymond Archer, of lying to the public about the reasons behind the vehicle retrieval. According to the artist, the EOCO boss verbally confronted him during a meeting at EOCO headquarters, where he and his godfather, Tagor, had gone to seek clarification.

“Raymond Archer screamed at me that I was hiding things for Kwabena Adu Boahen, the former NSB boss. He said if I want to go down with him, he doesn’t care,” Shatta Wale claimed.

The musician says he strongly denied any business or personal dealings with Adu Boahen and maintains that he has never been involved in fraud or any criminal activity. He also denied any knowledge of Nana Kwabena Amuah, the convicted fraudster currently serving a sentence in the U.S., whom EOCO and the FBI claim the Lamborghini is linked to.

Shatta Wale alleges that despite his explanations, Raymond Archer misrepresented the situation in EOCO’s official statement, falsely suggesting that the car he was using was part of the proceeds of a criminal enterprise.

“I never bought any stolen car. I don’t know this Amuah man. Raymond is trying to damage my name for reasons I don’t understand,” he said.

The seizure of the luxury car last June was part of an EOCO operation reportedly undertaken at the request of U.S. authorities, including the FBI and the Justice Department. EOCO’s statement claimed the 2019 Lamborghini was tied to a $4.7 million fraud case and was being processed for return to the U.S. as part of restitution.

EOCO has not officially responded to Shatta Wale’s claims at the time of this report, but the case continues to draw public attention given the high-profile names involved.
