Dancehall artiste Shatta Wale has said he would like to venture into politics when the time is right.
According to him, politics in the country has been looked at as a career for certain individuals but he believes anyone with the right qualifications can pursue it.
Speaking on Showbiz A-Z, Shatta Wale said contrary to the beliefs of some people, he will not make the decision to represent the people because he has a fanbase whose full support he would need.
However, he believes that it is the message he preaches that inspires people and will eventually propel him when he chooses to become a politician.
“Already some of the people think I feel I am too powerful but I don't see myself like that. So, If I come out and say I want to be in politics, people might feel like it's because I have fans who always surround me everywhere I go,” Shatta Wale said.
The 'My Level' hitmaker added, “I believe I will go into politics when the time is right just as Samini wants to let us know he wants to go into politics.”
He noted that he will give colleague dancehall act Samini all the support needed when he pursues his political career.
