Rapper Lil Wayne took to his Twitter handle to thank former US President Donald Trump for granting him presidential pardon.
Donald Trump granted rapper Lil Wayne a full presidential pardon in his final hours as the US president.
In November, the us Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida revealed that Wayne faced a federal weapons charge concerning a December 2019 incident at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport.
He pleaded guilty in December and was facing up to 10 years in prison.
However, earlier in the week , a press release about Wayne’s pardon was released by the White House and noted the rapper’s commitment to charity as a reason for the pardon.
Taking to Twitter today, Lil Wayne thanked Trump. Lil Wayne wrote;
“I want to thank President Trump for recognizing that I even have such a lot more to offer to my family, my art, and my community. I also want to thank @bradfordcohen for working so diligently to secure another chance on behalf of me . Love!
Dwayne Michael Carter Jr.”
