Initial reports suggested that fans threw missiles after being angered by her decision to use pre-recorded tracks. Another report that has also been circulating is that the venue was overcrowded, resulting in a stampede as fans clamoured to record the songstress on their phones.

Chimbodza set the record straight on what happened in Mutare. He first apologised to Mahadzi. He revealed that fans overpowered their security, which resulted in them destroying barricades.

This Is Why Makhadzi’s Zimbabwean Show Ended In Disaster!

“Well, I would like to put the record straight regarding what happened in Mutare. Firstly, I would like to apologise to Makhadzi and her team for being caught in the fracas,” he said.

Chipaz said while bottles were thrown at the show, they were not targeted at Makhadzi.

Fans went wild as they struggled to catch a glimpse of the Murahu hitmaker on stage, breaking down barricades meant to separate the VIPs from the ordinary crowd. Things turned ugly when the VIPs started pushing back, resulting in bottles being thrown in their direction.

“It’s true that bottles were thrown onto the stage but they were not targeted at Makhadzi as claimed on the social media and other media outlets. When Makhadzi appeared on stage, fans jostled to catch a glimpse of her and broke barricades demarcating the VIP enclosure and ordinary side. This did not go down well with fans in the VIP and the pushing and shoving resulted in bottles being thrown towards the VIP section. It obviously appeared as they were targeting Makhadzi but the few minutes she performed, people were very happy,” Chipaz said.

Partson “Chipaz” Chimbodza also begged fans to desist from violent behaviour during live shows.
