From L to R: Businessman Abu Trica, socialite Hajia4Reall and dancehall musician, Shatta Wale
Following the arrest of Ghanaian businessmen Kofi Boat, Dada Joe Remix, and others in connection with a romance scam, several entertainment personalities have become the subject of intense online discussion.
On June 18, 2025, reports emerged that Kofi Boat is facing extradition by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for his alleged involvement in a romance scam and money laundering.
Prior to Kofi Boat’s reported arrest, documents released by the FBI confirmed that businessman and socialite Dada Joe Remix had been apprehended by U.S. authorities and formally charged.
In the wake of these developments, Shatta Wale, Abu Trica, and Hajia4Reall have been trending on X.
Here’s why:
Abu Trica
Abu Trica has been trending since June 18, 2025, as netizens are calling on the FBI to investigate the source of his wealth.
Over the years, multiple viral videos have shown Abu Trica clearing high-end luxury vehicles from the port, including a Lamborghini Urus, Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG, Range Rover, and BMWs. Known as a businessman and real estate investor, his lavish lifestyle has long been a topic of speculation.
Many online users now suspect that Abu Trica could be connected to fraudulent activities and are urging authorities to place him under investigation.
Hajia4Reall
Hajia4Reall, a socialite and musician previously convicted in the U.S. for her involvement in a romance scam in 2023, is also trending.
Social media users are speculating that she may be cooperating with the FBI.
According to these unconfirmed claims, her sentence was allegedly reduced in exchange for providing information about other suspects, including Kofi Boat and Dada Joe Remix.
While no official statement has confirmed this, the speculation has fuelled renewed online attention on her.
Dancehall artiste, Shatta Wale, has found himself at the centre of online discussions due to his known associations with both Kofi Boat and Hajia4Reall, whom he has publicly referred to as his “godparents.”
Some netizens believe he could be implicated in the ongoing investigations and are calling on the FBI to probe the musician as well.
However, in a video response, Shatta Wale denied all allegations, asserting that his wealth comes solely from his music career, not fraud.
