Leave such antics for Shatta Wale, netizens tell Sonnie Badu after performing without crutches at his concert

The Baba hitmaker said that he had undergone significant surgery after a domestic mishap on his social media platforms, sharing photographs of himself on crutches before to the event.

Curiously, several online users asserted that Sonnie Badu was merely using the aforementioned household mishap to promote his next show. 

Their suspicions may have been validated when Sonnie Badu took the stage and delivered an eclectic performance that would undoubtedly stay in the memories of attendees for a very long time.

This time, however, Sonnie Badu—who had been limping for a week following the aforementioned domestic performance—performed without it.

The Wonder God performer returned the crutches shortly after his show and received assistance leaving the stage.

This has strengthened the opinions of some online users who claim that the crutches incident was really a publicity stunt for Rhytms of Africa. They are also criticizing the esteemed gospel singer for abandoning such attention-grabbing antics to others like Shatta Wale.

For example, renowned sound engineer and music producer Fred Kyei Mensah, better known as Fredyma, praised Sonnie Badu and his crew for a well-planned Rhytms of Africa performance.

However, just like many, he questioned Sonnie Badu’s quick healing when he wrote, “What happened to the crutches is another debate for, Jesus can heal a wounded spirit whole in a week. Boi!”

And for critics, his brand is too big and doesn’t need such pranks to get people to attend an event he is headlining.

Response

Sonnie Badu was supported by Zhikay Ike Junior, a member of the organizing team, in a Facebook post, claiming that his accident was real and not staged.

He disclosed that he had witnessed Sonnie in agony backstage following the performance, as the numbing effect of the injection had begun to wear off.
