Another day, another trend- Here’s why ‘Sark’ is trending on Twitter today
“Most Decorated Rapper in Africa”, Sarkodie is trending on Twitter following a tweet he made about the price of sneakers.
A Twitter user by the name @EphraimKwao is advertising Air Jordan 4 Retro Black Cat 2020 for which he is selling at GHC 300.
Sarkodie, who is a fan of sneakers and has been pictured wearing only the best of the best sneakers, saw the tweet and called the seller out for selling “fakes”.
According to Sark, who quoted the tweet with the price of the original version, the Air Jordan 4 is selling at $1068.
“Bruh don’t do that” he captioned.
Sarkodie’s tweet has since gone viral with several reactions from various users.

According to popular Twitter Influencer @Gyaigyimii, not everyone in the country can afford to buy sneakers for over GHC 5000, hence the reason people go for the lesser versions of sneakers.
“Obidi no be everyone wey fit afford $1000 dollar sneaker,” Gyaigimii replied to Sark.

Popular YouTuber, Kwadwo Sheldon, also called Sarkodie out for exposing someone over fakes when he once sold fake clothing from his “Sark” clothing line to his fans in the past.
“You once sold Banku to your fan base tho.. but go ahead and destroy someone’s business! Your fan base go support you,” Sheldon tweeted.
