DMW artiste, Mayorkun has debunked the rumour making the rounds that ‘sexual assaults’ took place at the venue of his recent concert in Ibadan.
With a record of over 13,000 people in attendance at the concert at The Palms Mall, Ring Road, Ibadan, the event tagged “The Ibadan Concert” was no doubt a successful outing for the award winning artist.
The singer explained that the condoms found at his Ibadan Concert were only distributed to fans for a ‘safe sex awareness programme’.
As a way of trying to encourage safe sex among youths; the organizers with the support of relevant organisations, distributed packs of condoms freely for reproductive and family health awareness which according to the artiste; “is typical of events of this magnitude. Those condoms were seen littering the event ground afterwards,” he said.
Speaking on the turnout at the concert, Mayorkun said “I had thought I would see between 5,000 and 7,000 people at the event, but I was shocked to see almost 13,000 people, the support was massive”.
“I was ready to perform for two to three hours and I had also promised maximum security. So, as soon as I got news on how packed the mall was, I had to get more security. The entrance planned for me was busy; I had to beg the management of The Palms Mall to open the back gate for cars to come in”, he explained.
