The incident, it is understood, took place on Saturday, July 8th.

This was after Nwagi stopped the music and told off one of the revelers to stop touching her inappropriately.

Sir, I didn’t come here to be groped. Go get a prostitute and bring her on stage,” she said as the crowd started gearing her.

Immediately the bottles started flying from all corners. She was quickly helped off stage by her security.

Minutes earlier, the singer had hit a man standing close to the stage multiple times with the microphone, when he reached to touch her.

This is one of several incidents now where Nwagi has had her performance interrupted as she fended off men trying to touch her inappropriately.

In another recent incident, she shoved off a man's hand as he reached to place a cash note into her bra.

About a month ago on June 3rd, the Swangz Avenue artist was involved in another on-stage spat when she slapped a phone out of a man’s hands after she caught him recording her groin area.

"When you come to see Winnie Nwagi performing, please, show some respect," she fumed after telling the deejay to lower the volume.

"I'm not the type you show contempt to. Even clients who book me know that. Don't come here to touch my thighs.

In a subsequent interview, she said she was determined to teach concert goers a lesson on how to be respectful of female artists.
