I wonder who wants Wyclef dead, and why!

The bullet just grazed his hands, i bet they didn't want him dead after all, probably just to scare him and make him 'toe the line', u know.

So$e people r desperately wicked . . . . M̶̲̥̅y man Ȋ̝̊̅ wish U̶̲̥̅̊ speedy recovery

what

just a warning to him

Politics is a dirty game in some countries,
Wyclef should have known that,this is only but a warning shot.
Next time, it will be a serious deal.

Bad people dey this world shaa.

Hehe, a trained k*****r u're referring to

For your Information politics in Haiti is worst tha Nigeria, they are very crude, this is just the beginning, Wyclef has been warned before now, he should not contest if he like his life, he is not contesting but supporting a fellow musician. And those pple(OLD Politicians) know that Wyclef has the crowd. My advice for wyclef he should leave Haiti because they will kill him
