KING PROMISE RESPONDS AFTER BACKLASH OVER COMMENT THAT LAGOS IS ‘BIGGER THAN GHANA’
The Ghanaian singer posted a light-hearted photo of himself holding a geography textbook with the caption "Research has begun," winning back fans with his humorous and humble response.
Ghanaian singer King Promise has gracefully responded to the social media storm that followed his controversial claim that Lagos is “bigger than the whole of Ghana,” using humor to defuse the situation and win back public favor.
The “Terminator” hitmaker faced significant backlash after a video went viral showing him in conversation with Nigerian TikTok personality Peller, where he compared the population sizes of Ghana and Lagos. His statement that “Lagos is bigger than the whole of Ghana” sparked widespread correction from Ghanaians who pointed out that while Lagos may have a higher population density, Ghana is substantially larger in both land area and total population.
Rather than responding defensively, King Promise took a different approach. On October 22, 2025, he posted a photo on X showing himself holding a geography textbook with the playful caption: “Research has begun.”
The witty response quickly went viral, with fans and critics alike applauding his ability to laugh at himself. Comments flooded in praising his humility and good humor, with one user joking: “Don’t go and sin no more.”
The incident demonstrated the singer’s relatable personality and social media savvy, turning a potential publicity misstep into an opportunity to strengthen his connection with fans. By acknowledging the error with grace and humor, King Promise successfully navigated the controversy while maintaining his status as one of Ghana’s most beloved musical artists.
