Run Mad crooner, Terry G, has reacted to the rumours making the round that he was chased off the stage by irate fans during a performance at Makurdi, Benue State, a few weeks ago.
On 19 December, 2013, Terry G, alongside Ice Prince and J Martins were at the IBB Square, Makurdi for a show.
The first to perform was Ice Prince, who left nothing behind to wow the audience. Coming after him was Terry G, who also in his usual way gave an energetic performance. After the songs; Free Madness and Akpako Bombom, the anxious fans were already crossing the barricade erected by the security operatives.
By the time Terry G was performing the song Halleluyah, the overzealous fans, who apparently picked special love for Terry G, because he is an indigene of the state, trooped to the stage, and in the process, efforts by the security personnel to push them back resulted to a protest.
While the security men continued to hit the crowd, they responded by throwing objects back at them. This prompted organisers of the event to move Terry G, his crew and the other artistes away from the scene through the backstage. Due to this, even J Martins could not perform.
Speaking to www.theoctopusnews.com, Terry G said “It is simply impossible for my fans, not even in my state where I’m being treated like a King to throw stones at me or chase me out of the stage, it’s not realistic. The problem was purely between the security guys and the audience, but for security reasons, I and the other artistes have to be taken out of the scene. Whoever is spreading the rumour that I was stoned is simply ignorant of what happened,” Terry G said.
