The 'Pana' singer reportedly stretched his hand towards Are and veteran talent manager punched him for showing disrespect. 

"Sunday Are was annoyed that a small boy like Tekno can be so rude to shake hands with him instead of bowing down or prostrating" an anonymous source told The NET. "He didn’t even calm down, he just punched Tekno and pushed him."

"Immediately the backstage area erupted as people around Wizkid gathered round Tekno and threatened to beat him up further. By this time Davido was on stage and the fracas spilled over outside. As soon as Davido was done and he heard what happened, he rushed towards the scene with his people."

A viral video showed a scene of unrest that saw Wizkid making an attempt to interfere in what was reported to be a clash between his camp and Davido's who was sympathetic to Tekno.

Davido later took to Twitter to express his support for Tekno who he assured of protection based on the following comment.
