What I realized was that presenters were on the stage performing. I think that time they spent on stage could have been allocated to artistes to perform because the fans were there to see the artistes not presenters,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Article Wan also revealed that he and crew were physically manhandled by the security at the Accra Sports Stadium when they tried to get inside the venue to perform. <\/p>\n<p>Article Wan claimed that the organizers of the concert did not give his entourage a car pass, compelling him to park his vehicle outside and use the entrance meant for the patrons.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe security man was lashing some of the fans. Before I realized he lashed me also on my neck. He later recognized me and apologized.
