Meek Mill had his phone stolen at the Afro Nation concert. Meek Mill’s difficulties did not end with his altercation with festivalgoers at the Afro Nation event. In an Instagram post, he said that someone had taken his phone.
In a recent Facebook post, the Ghana Police Service announced the arrest of a man they say stole Meek Mill’s phone. The suspect’s name was revealed to be Nuhu Sale, alias Ababaawa, and it was said that he was apprehended on December 30 while he was hiding in Accra.
The stolen phone has been recovered and Nuhu is currently in police custody, as reported by the cops. Two photos of the suspect (whose face was blurred) and a snapshot of the phone were included in the post.
Afro nation music event has been called off
For reasons of public health and safety, the Afro Nation music event has been called off early. After much deliberation, the organisers of the Afro Nation music festival in Accra decided to call it quits on the evening of December 30 out of fear for the attendees’ well-being.
Notable musicians who performed were KiDi, Black Sherif, Stonebwoy, Gyakie, and others. Unfortunately, the evening’s final performances by Nigerian superstars Asake and Rema and British rapper Skepta were cancelled.
Security at the gates was unable to manage the large crowd, and the event’s organisers announced that they had decided to call it a day.
Immediately after Dadju’s set, one of the officials said they would be cancelling the rest of the event due to unforeseen complications. One audience member expressed her displeasure with the event’s cancellation and her disappointment that the other musicians did not show up.
Gameli Hamelo, a journalist, said it was the right call to cancel the concert since keeping it going could have put the performers and visitors in danger.
