He added that the GH₵20k goes into hiring 5-6 security guards, renting SUVs for the security guards, Fueling the SUVs, hiring a motorcade and miscellaneous money to share with fans.

"Security is very important; your security is not enough, and we can't rely on yours alone, so there is a need to get ours, so we hire 5-6 security personnel. We will also need SUVs to transport the guards; then we'd need to fuel these SUVs; when we step out, we'd have to give out money to our fans as well and also, because we want to be early for the event, we hire a motorcade. When we calculate all the expenses, we spend no less than GH₵20k whenever we leave the house for any event."
