Ruggedman is yet to comment on the incident but his management responded thus: ‘Ruggedman’s show was going smoothly and the turn up was loud. As a matter of fact, Super Eagles player. Aaron Samuel and B2Ks Demarion were there with Ruggedman, and all of a sudden the police just came in to stop the show. We later found out that it was a competing show promoter in China that called the police because they felt jealous. His other shows in other cities are still on course.’
