Let’s Collaborate To Make Shaxi A Proud Ghanaian-Owned Success – Malik Basintale To Shatta Wale

Malik Basintale, Chief Executive Officer of Ghana’s Youth Employment Agency (YEA), has signaled his interest in collaborating with Shatta Wale’s ride-hailing venture, Shaxi.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Malik Basintale directly reached out to dancehall star Shatta Wale, proposing a partnership aimed at transforming Shaxi into a leading, fully Ghanaian-owned ride-hailing brand.

He wrote: “Dear @shattawalegh, As CEO of YEA, my mind dey!!! Let’s partner to make Shaxi Ghanaian-owned and big 🇬🇭 Hear from you soon!”

Basintale’s message came shortly after Shatta Wale reshared a video urging both government and private sector players to support and invest in the Shaxi initiative.

Captioning the video, Shatta Movement leader Shatta Wale expressed appreciation for the growing support for his initiative, stating:

“I like how everyone is supporting Shaxi all of a sudden and calling on the Government of Ghana to support or invest. Thank you all for believing in the African dream. Shaxi is not just a ride-hailing service — it’s a movement designed to empower the youth, create jobs, and promote digital innovation within our transport sector. At its core, Shaxi represents a sustainable solution to unemployment, and a bold example of what can happen when creativity meets purpose.”
