Meek Mill.
American heavyweight rapper, Robert Rihmeek Williams, popularly known as Meek Mill, has apologized for shooting a video in the Ghanaian Presidential Villa.
The Philadelphia-born rapper, who was a headline performer at the 2022 Afro Nation, which was held between December 29th and December 30th, 2022, at Marine Drive, Black Star Square, Accra, Ghana, had a great time in the Gold Coast, meeting the President as well.
However, the rapper faced backlash last weekend after he posted a video that was filmed at the Jubilee House governmental building, which serves as both Ghana’s official residence and office for the president.
With many Ghanaians dragging the rapper on the internet, Meek quickly apologized for his actions.
He wrote:
“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!”

I don’t think they knew it was video footage when we asked to shoot its a small camera and one kid … in America we didn’t know this existed and was excited to show because they don’t show Ghana on our media much! So I’ll take responsibility for my mistake! Not intentional https://t.co/obDZb9Czu5
