Ghanaian artist Wendy Shay has revealed that internal sabotage from Rufftown Records team members derailed her first major concert in 2018, following her signing to the label after Ebony Reigns died. The performer stated that despite securing substantial corporate backing and promoting Ogee The MC to road manager at her insistence, those responsible for production allegedly misappropriated sponsorship funds and arranged inferior lighting and sound equipment.
An Indian company had pledged support for the event and discussed a potential $100,000 brand ambassadorship contingent on the performance's success. Wendy Shay arrived at the venue with visiting friends from Germany, only to discover faulty technical systems and a poorly executed setup that contradicted the promised professional production. Staff members fled when confronted about the discrepancies.
The incident eliminated her opportunity for the endorsement deal and marked one of the most damaging episodes of her early career.
