Why Iyanya can be arrested — Police

The police spokesman of the Delta State Police Command, DSP Bright Edafe, has reacted to contentious footage of music star, Iyanya, pushing a fan off stage.

Several Nigerian aired their opinion after a video emerged, showing the “Kukere” singer pushing a fan off stage. In the viral video which was uploaded on the Nigerian digital space, Iyanya was spotted, performing his hit song ‘One Side’, in Awka. Standing next to the artiste was a fan who was spraying naira notes which he placed on his face, the action of the fan which had provoked the singer, prompted Iyanya to push him off stage.

After the show, singer Iyanya made a tweet in regards to the viral footage, according to him, the fan was slapping the money at his face, which he described as “disrespectful”
