Eyewitnesses present say the artiste was hanging out in the VIP section when he noticed his fellow musicians Sound Sultan and Rocksteady being prevented from entering the VIP section.

He then reportedly went to confront the bouncer about this to which the bouncer said that the decision is from management and that if Oritsefemi was so keen on being with his friends, he should leave the VIP and go out to regular and be with his friends. According to reports, Oritsefemi agreed to leave VIP but was pushed back by the bouncer before yet another came to rough handle him. Oritsefemi holding a cup of wine tried to defend himself by slapping the bouncer with the wine cup which left a scar on the bouncer’s face.
