Ghanaian musician Shatana is elated following recent comments by Pastor Jakes Tetteh, founder of Redeemed Kingdom Gospel Church at Botwe Third Gate, which seemingly validate her hit song ‘Moneycetamol’.
During a sermon, Pastor Tetteh referred to money as “Moneycetamol”—a clever wordplay comparing financial stability to a pain-relieving drug.
He emphasized that financial struggles can lead to frustration, insomnia, prostitution, and even death, highlighting the importance of both spiritual and financial empowerment.
Shatana, whose song ‘Moneycetamol’ has stirred significant conversation, interpreted the pastor’s words as an endorsement of her message. The track, which focuses on the need for financial independence and security, has sparked debates even within religious circles.
Sharing her excitement on social media, Shatana expressed that her song is more than just entertainment, but a reflection of real-life struggles.
“Even the church acknowledges it now. Moneycetamol is a movement, not just a song!” she wrote.
With the rising cost of living, the conversation about money’s role in daily survival continues to gain momentum, and Shatana seems to be relishing the attention her song is receiving.
