Elise Avemegah, mother of controversial Ghanaian artist Shatta Wale, says she is currently homeless after being evicted by her landlady two weeks ago.

In a recent interview with Hotfmghana, Ms Avemegah revealed she has been evicted from the apartment her son got for her some years back, over unsettled debt. All attempts to reach her son have proved abortive.

“Yes, I have been evicted from the East Legon apartment Shatta Wale got for me , almost two weeks now I have no where to stay. I am currently homeless. All attempts to reach Shatta Wale to settle the debts the landlady claims I’m owing have proved unsuccessful,” she said.

Unable to get assistance from her superstar son, Shatta’s mother pleaded with the public for their immediate assistance as the “the embarrassment is too much.”

“Since my son is not helping me, I will please appeal to the general public to help me rent a new apartment. They can either give me money to rent or can dash me an apartment. I only need a place to call my home,” she pleaded.

This comes a week after the artist gifted his bodyguard a very pricey diamond necklace.
