Black Sherif Injured by Overexcited Fan During Performance at University of Ghana

Black Sherif faced an unexpected setback during his electrifying performance at the Diaspora Dome, University of Ghana, on Friday night. The Black Sherif injured incident unfolded mid-show when an overzealous fan stormed the stage, leaving the artist with a visible lip injury.

The Incident:

Eyewitnesses and social media footage reveal that Agbovi is the fan at the centre of the drama. He added that Agbovi dodged security and sprinted onto the stage while Black Sherif performed one of his hit songs. In a gesture of goodwill, the artist momentarily allowed Agbovi to dance alongside him—a decision that quickly turned risky.

As security moved to escort the fan away, Agbovi clung to Black Sherif, pulling him off-balance and nearly toppling both into the crowd. The scuffle ended with Agbovi restrained, but not before Black Sherif suffered a cut to his lip. “Hey, Agbovi cut my lip!” the artist announced to the audience, wiping his mouth and flashing a mix of irritation and humour.

Despite the shock, Black Sherif shrugged off the injury, resuming his set within minutes to roaring applause. The concert reached another peak when award-winning rapper Sarkodie joined him for an unplanned collaborative performance, diverting attention from the earlier chaos.

The incident has sparked debates about crowd control at live events. With some fans praising Black Sherif’s professionalism and others criticising lax security. Social media clips of the moment—viewed millions of times—show Agbovi’s frenzied rush and the artist’s quick recovery.

Sources close to the event reveal that Agbovi, a known superfan, had attempted backstage access earlier but was denied. His sudden stage invasion appears impulsive, though questions linger about how he bypassed security. Meanwhile, Black Sherif’s team confirmed the injury was minor, with the artist joking backstage, “This lip will heal faster than the internet’s memory”
