A fight broke out between representatives of Davido and Wizkid following an assault on Tekno by Sunday Are.
According to a report, the cause of the fracas had to do with Tekno and Wizkid’s manager, Sunday Are. The altercation occurred at the backstage of the One Africa Music Fest concert in Dubai held on Thursday.
After Tekno finished his performance, he saw Wizkid at the backstage with members of his entourage and his manager Sunday Are. Tekno reportedly went over to greet Wizkid and his crew. The ‘Pana’ singer reportedly stretched his hand towards Are and veteran talent manager punched him for showing disrespect.
“Sunday Are was annoyed that a small boy like Tekno could be so rude to shake hands with him instead of bowing down or prostrating,” an anonymous source told The NET. “He didn’t even calm down, he just punched Tekno and pushed him.”
“Immediately the backstage area erupted in melee as people around Wizkid gathered round Tekno and threatened to beat him up further. By this time Davido was on stage and the fracas spilled over outside. As soon as Davido was done and he heard what happened, he rushed to the scene with his people.”
A viral video showed a scene of unrest that saw Wizkid making an attempt to interfere in what was reported to be a clash between his camp and Davido’s who was sympathetic to Tekno.
Davido later took to Twitter to express his support for Tekno who he assured of protection.
