Shattafest UK Cancelled Following Serious Incident Outside Venue
Shattafest UK Cancelled after organisers announced the difficult decision to call off the highly anticipated event following reports of a serious incident outside the concert venue.
In an official press statement released by the Shatta Movement Empire management, organisers said the cancellation was made with the safety and well-being of patrons as the highest priority.
According to the statement, reports of the incident prompted organisers to immediately cancel the event, stressing that no concert is more important than protecting the lives and safety of fans.
“It is with a very heavy heart that we address the unfortunate events surrounding Shattafest UK,” the statement read.
Management disclosed that several people were reportedly injured, while there were also allegations of fatalities. However, organisers noted that they are awaiting official confirmation from the relevant authorities before confirming the full details of what transpired.
The statement expressed heartfelt condolences and prayers for everyone affected, including victims, their families, friends, and all those impacted by the tragic incident.
The organisers described the development as heartbreaking, noting that Shatta Wale has always stood for bringing joy, hope and unforgettable experiences to his supporters through music.
According to management, what was intended to be a night of celebration unfortunately turned into a moment of pain, leaving the entire Shatta Movement family devastated.
The organisers also appealed to the public and members of the media to refrain from spreading unverified information while investigations continue.
They urged everyone to allow the appropriate authorities to conduct their work and encouraged the public to rely only on verified information until official findings are released.
Management further expressed appreciation to emergency responders, security personnel, medical teams, venue staff and every individual who acted swiftly to assist those affected during the emergency.
Special gratitude was also extended to fans who travelled from different parts of the United Kingdom and beyond to attend the event, thanking them for their patience, understanding and continued support despite the unfortunate circumstances.
The statement reaffirmed that Shatta Wale and the entire Shatta Movement Empire remain committed to cooperating fully with investigators, relevant authorities and event partners to establish exactly what happened.
In its closing remarks, management stressed that the focus is no longer on the concert but on the people whose lives have been affected.
“This is not the outcome anyone wished for. Today, our focus is not on a concert—it is on the people whose lives have been affected,” the statement said.
The organisers concluded by asking the public to keep the victims, their loved ones and everyone impacted in their prayers, while praying for comfort for grieving families, strength for those recovering and peace for the entire community.

Ramsey Nouah recounts unusual encounter with female fan at Ghana movie premiere
Nollywood actor and filmmaker Ramsey Nouah has opened up about an unusual encounter he had with a female fan during a movie premiere in Ghana.
Speaking on Angel FM in Kumasi, the veteran actor said the woman approached him, hugged him and took photographs with him before secretly slipping an unidentified item into the pocket of his jacket.
Ramsey Nouah explained that he initially thought the item was a handkerchief, but later discovered that it was something else.
He deliberately refused to disclose exactly what the woman had left in his pocket, leaving listeners to make their own guesses.
However, guests on the programme shouted that the item was the woman’s panties, a reaction that made the actor laugh.
Recounting the incident, Ramsey Nouah said:
“She walked up to me, she hugged me, we took pictures, and she left it in my jacket, and I took it out, I thought it was a handkerchief; it wasn’t a handkerchief. I will leave the rest for your imagination.”
The actor also discussed how his wife of about 27 years reacts to the romantic and intimate scenes he performs with other actresses in movies.
According to Ramsey Nouah, his wife has become used to seeing him kiss his co-stars because she understands that such scenes are part of his profession.
He revealed that she sometimes teases him about his kissing skills, joking that he is no longer as good as he used to be.
He quoted his wife as saying:
“Your woman needs to understand your work. I have been married to my wife for about 27 years. All the kisses and everything in movies, she is used to it. She used to tell me, ‘You are not kissing very well. You don’t do it anymore because you are not good anymore.’

Please Wait till Next Year – Lil Win Appeals to Ghanaians Over Private Videos
Ghanaian Kumawood actor and filmmaker Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as Lil Win, has appealed to anyone planning to release private videos to hold on until next year.
The actor appealed for renewed conversations on social media over the circulation of alleged private videos involving some personalities.
Lil Win explained that private videos that surface online often generate intense public interest and can quickly dominate conversations across social media platforms. He noted that such developments could make it difficult for other entertainment-related activities and projects to attract the attention they deserve.
According to the actor, he is particularly concerned about the possible impact of another viral private video on the promotion of his upcoming movie, A Journey to Africa. He said considerable resources had already been committed to the project and appealed to anyone who may be in possession of private footage to delay its release until next year.
His request was essentially for people to allow him and his team to have their moment in promoting the movie without another controversy taking over social media.
Lil Win also used the opportunity to encourage people who have recently found themselves at the centre of private-video controversies. Among those he mentioned was Kumawood actor Oteele, whose alleged private videos have recently sparked widespread online discussion.
The actor urged Oteele and others affected by similar incidents to remain strong and not allow the intense public attention and commentary to break them down.
The comments come against the backdrop of growing concerns about the circulation of private material on social media. Once such content is uploaded or shared, it can spread rapidly, reaching large audiences within a short period and subjecting the individuals involved to widespread public scrutiny.
Lil Win’s appeal, although linked to the promotion of A Journey to Africa, has also drawn attention to the broader consequences of sharing private material without the consent of the people involved.
He therefore called for patience, asking those who may be holding such footage to wait until next year before releasing anything, as he seeks to keep public attention focused on his upcoming movie.

Ramsey Nouah Praises Kumasi, Says Its People Are More Down-to-Earth Than Accra
Nigerian actor and filmmaker Ramsey Nouah has spoken highly of Kumasi, describing the Ashanti Regional capital as a vibrant city filled with hardworking, entrepreneurial and down-to-earth people.
Nouah shared his observations during an interview on Angel FM after arriving in Kumasi to feature in an upcoming movie by Ghanaian actor and comedian Kwadwo Nkansah Lil Win.
The veteran actor said he was impressed by the atmosphere in Kumasi and the energy of its residents. He likened the city to major Nigerian cities, particularly Lagos and Abuja, based on the different characteristics he has observed.
“Kumasi is lovely. People are awesome. The energy here is quite something — it’s almost like Lagos and Abuja,” he said.
Explaining the comparison, Nouah described Lagos as a city largely driven by hustlers, business-minded individuals and entrepreneurs who are constantly looking for opportunities to make a living and build businesses.
He contrasted this with Abuja, which he said is more associated with people who have already attained considerable financial success and enjoy what he described as the lifestyle of the “big boys.”
“Lagos is the hustlers’ place. Abuja is where people are eating, enjoying the big money and acting like they are the big boys. Lagos is more like the entrepreneurs. It feels like the same thing here,” Nouah explained.
According to him, Kumasi’s entrepreneurial nature reminds him more of Lagos because of the strong sense of hustle and business among the people he has encountered.
The actor also compared Kumasi with Ghana’s capital, Accra, particularly in terms of the attitude and lifestyle of residents.
Asked whether he preferred the more relaxed atmosphere he had experienced in Kumasi, Nouah agreed and said people in the Ashanti Regional capital appeared to be more down-to-earth than those in Accra.
“People are more down-to-earth here in Kumasi than in Accra, based on the experience,” he stated.
His comments come during a visit to Kumasi to join the cast of an upcoming production by Lil Win. His participation in the project adds to the growing collaboration between Ghanaian and Nigerian actors and
filmmakers.

The incident happened on August 11, 2026, at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, London, where Davido was performing as part of an early showcase of songs from his newly released album, Oriade.
During the performance, the singer stopped the music and addressed a member of the audience over the alleged incident. He issued a firm warning, telling the fan that he would leave the stage if the individual repeated the behaviour.
“If I see you here one more time, I’m going to walk off the stage,” Davido said.
The Afrobeats star also defended his crew members, reminding the audience that they had spent the entire day working to ensure the concert was successfully staged.
“These people have been working here all day. Don’t do that,” he said.
A video of the confrontation has since circulated widely on social media, showing Davido visibly upset as he addressed the audience member.
His decision to interrupt the performance and publicly stand up for his staff has attracted significant attention online, with many social media users praising his firm response.
However, the exact circumstances surrounding the alleged disrespect have not been established, and it was not immediately clear whether the fan was eventually removed from the venue.
