Chaos broke out at a music event in Ghana’s capital Accra on Sunday morning when fans of two Dancehall artistes clashed on stage.
Supporters of ShattaWale and Stonebwoy have been bitter rivals in the Ghanaian music industry for years.
Their bitter rivalry was ignited at the event during an award presentation session.
Stonebwoy had just been announced as the Dancehall Artiste of the year and was on stage to receive his awards.
But Shattawale who is a rival Dancehall artiste then stormed the stage with his supporters.
In the midst of the chaos supporters of the two musicians fought and some of the artistes were seen pulling guns.
