Nigerian rapper Blaqbonez, born Emeka Akumefule, found himself facing an unexpectedly hostile crowd during a recent performance in Abuja.
The incident unfolded on December 7 at the Delphino Picnic behind the Abuja Velodrome, where Blaqbonez shared the stage with Runtown and Duncan Mighty.
A video circulating online shows parts of the audience booing and throwing objects toward the stage, disrupting his performance. The tension reached its peak during his rendition of “ACL,” a standout track from his October album No Excuses.

Despite the chaos, Blaqbonez remained calm and later addressed the incident on Twitter, showcasing his signature humour:
“thought they could stop me from doing acl, i gave them 3 times 😂”
The rapper’s reaction highlighted both his professionalism and his ability to turn a challenging moment into a lighthearted interaction with fans.
