The American rapper posted a video with scenes from the Jubilee House on Instagram over the weekend.

He subsequently deleted the video following the harsh criticisms from Ghanaians.

Many Ghanaians including the Member of Parliament for the North Tongu constituency, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa laid the blame on the security detail at the seat of government and the handlers of the president.

Meek Mill later apologised for the video and said he didn’t mean to disrespect Ghanaians or the presidency.
