A Lagos-based interviewer who was pushed to the ground by a member of Kizz Daniel’s security team after the Supremacy Concert has publicly apologised to the singer. The man, who works with Advee Media, admitted that his persistent attempt to grab an interview with the Afrobeats star crossed the line, but many Nigerians online have shown him little sympathy.
What Happened at the Supremacy Concert
The incident took place on Sunday, October 4, 2026, after Kizz Daniel performed at the 10th edition of the Supremacy Concert in Lagos. Reports say the show was held at the Eko Convention Centre.
As the singer and his team were leaving the venue, the interviewer followed them, hoping to get a few words from the star. Security declined the request, but he kept pushing for the interview.
A video that later spread on X and Instagram showed one of the bodyguards shoving him to the ground. The interviewer said his microphone was damaged in the scuffle.
His first reaction
Right after the incident, the interviewer took to social media to complain about how the security team handled him. “They broke my mic cos I was trying to interview Kizz Daniel, I can’t take that,” he said in his first post.
His complaint quickly went viral, and the clip became one of the most talked-about moments from the concert.
The Apology
Barely a day later, he changed his tone. In a follow-up video, the man known as Advee apologised directly to the singer and everyone linked to the event.
“I want to apologise to Kizz Daniel, Vado the Great, his brother, and his team management, and the Supremacy Concert at large,” he said.
He admitted that his conduct fell short of what is expected of a professional. According to him, he got carried away because Kizz Daniel is rarely seen in public, and he was excited to finally be close to him.
He also revealed that he has been a fan of the “Woju” hitmaker since his primary school days, which he said explained his eagerness that night.

How Nigerians Reacted
The apology did not win many people over. Many social media users mocked the interviewer, while others felt he should have respected the security team’s decision the first time.
One user, @thisisastronglady, wrote, “U go explain tire,” a pidgin way of saying he would get tired of explaining himself.
Another user, @felainversace, asked, “Have u tried another profession bro.” A third commenter advised him to work on how he speaks and communicates on camera.
A wider debate on media access
Not everyone took the singer’s side. Some people said the bodyguard went too far by physically pushing a man who was only holding a microphone. A few even suggested that he could take legal action.
Others asked whether he should be paid for the microphone if it was truly damaged. The clash has also reopened the long-running debate about how far journalists and content creators should go when chasing celebrities at events, and how much force security teams should use.
The issue of how media workers are treated at public events has been in the spotlight lately. In Ghana, the industry recently condemned an attack on blogger Sika Official at La Pleasure Beach, although that case involved a soldier and is unrelated to this one.
No Word Yet From Kizz Daniel
As of the time of writing, neither Kizz Daniel nor his management had publicly commented on the incident or the apology.
The singer is known for keeping a low profile and rarely granting interviews. His bodyguards have also drawn attention in the past for how firmly they protect him at events.
Kizz Daniel’s Busy Week
The drama comes during a busy period for the singer. Earlier this month, he released the video for his Afro-gospel song “Owo Oluwa” featuring Young Jonn, Krizbeatz and Wave Choir.
The visual, co-directed by philanthropist Asherkine, was dedicated to his late parents and showed acts of kindness to ordinary Nigerians on the streets.
Fans who were at the Supremacy Concert also praised his performance, before the backstage clash took over the conversation online.
Final Word
For now, the interviewer has owned his mistake and asked for forgiveness. Whether Kizz Daniel’s camp responds or lets the matter rest remains to be seen. The episode is a reminder that passion for a story should not come at the cost of respect for boundaries — on both sides of the camera.
