Shatta Wale's purple Lamborghini arrives in Ghana
Recall that Shatta Wale's purple Lamborghini Urus landed at the Tema port on Tuesday, August 19, 2025 and was unloaded from its container.
The SM boss had previously announced the acquisition of the vehicle in June, with footage of the new car being offloaded from a long trailer into a huge container on the streets in the US before its shipment to Ghana.
Shatta Wale made the big announcement at a time when there was significant scrutiny into his source of wealth after his godfather, Kofi Boat, was arrested by the US law enforcement agents in Ghana over alleged financial crimes.

Footage showed members of the dancehall musician's management team, including his Public Relations Officer (PRO), Sammy Flex, at the port to claim possession of the new luxurious vehicle.
The purple Lamborghini Urus was eventually transported via a truck to Shatta Wale's mansion at Trasacco Valley, where he and his team celebrated in grand style on the premises.
Shatta Wale's detention and release from EOCO
Shatta Wale was detained at the headquarters of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) to assist in investigations into the purchase of his 2019 Lamborghini Urus, which was recently seized by the agency.
According to an official statement from the financial crime investigative body, the SM boss was questioned for nearly four hours and was unable to prove his ownership of the luxurious car.
Shatta Wale was released from the custody of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) in the evening on Thursday, August 21, 2025, after he was able to meet his bail conditions, following its reduction from GH¢10 million to GH¢5 million with two sureties.
