Wiyaala Wiyaala

Wiyaala, a Ghanaian Afropop singer, has criticized Ghana's FDA for banning alcohol advertisements featuring celebrities.

She distinguishes between influence and promotion, advocating for responsible guidelines.

Wiyaala urges deeper consideration and more detailed explanations from the FDA.
