Shugatiti, a Ghanaian socialist who also happens to be a nudist, has detailed the difficulties she has had dealing with government agencies since opening a restaurant in Accra.
The owner of a restaurant famous for serving food in genital-shaped clay pots has revealed that the Ghana Tourism Authority has served her with a letter requesting that she stop using her contentious pots.
Her area, according to the authorities, is not suitable for children.
“Ghana Tourism Authority served a letter discouraging me from using my penis-shaped pot. They indicated that it isn’t safe for children. So now, we no longer serve with those pots…ever since I opened my shop, government officials have been disturbing me. You can’t operate a business in Ghana if you’re not strong.”
In an interview with actor Kwaku Manu on the ‘Aggressive Show,’ Shugatiti stated that Ghanaian lawyer Maurice Ampaw was the main cause of the perpetual objections and visits from authorities.
Shugatiti was castigated and implored by authorities to close down her restaurant in 2022 by a famous lawyer known for criticizing indecent exposure by celebrities and the public at large.
Shugatiti, who is perplexed as to why Lawyer Ampaw has been assigned to her case, wonders if he is interested in her.
“That man, I guess he loves me, the reason why he comes after me. I don’t understand him, and I haven’t offended him…I don’t have his contact details I would have called to question him. He aggressively talks about me on television meanwhile, I haven’t offended him. I have never met him,” she said.
Also commenting on the lawyer’s call for the closure of her new business, she said: “I saw it as one of those things, people will always talk…I see it as normal because no one has served me with a court document. I saw it as one of those things.”
