Medikal Faces Backlash for ‘sexually harassing’ a lady on stage at Evandy-Bani Hall Week

Ghanaian rapper Medikal is facing a wave of criticism after a video surfaced showing him allegedly touching a female fan inappropriately during his performance at the Evandy-Bani Hall Week on June 14, 2025.

What Happened?

The video, now circulating widely on social media, shows Medikal inviting a woman from the audience onto the stage. After she joins him, Medikal hugs her, and appears to touch her buttocks. The woman’s body language immediately suggests discomfort, and the crowd begins chanting “Obi Girl” (Twi for “someone’s girlfriend”).

Medikal then addresses the woman, asking if she has a boyfriend, to which she nods yes. He then turns to the crowd, implying she only admitted to having a boyfriend because the event was being recorded. “If there were no cameras here, would she have admitted to having a boyfriend?” he asked. He repeated the question to the woman directly.

Social Media Outrage

The video has ignited a firestorm of criticism online. Many users are condemning Medikal’s actions as disrespectful, inappropriate, and a potential case of sexual harassment. Critics point out that touching the woman without her consent was a clear overstep.

The incident is sparking a wider conversation about the boundaries between artists and fans, and the importance of consent, especially in a public performance setting. Some social media users are even urging the woman to consider legal action.

What’s Next?

As of now, Medikal has not publicly addressed the incident. It remains to be seen how this controversy will affect his career and public image. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the responsibility that comes with being a public figure and the need for artists to be mindful of their actions and interactions with fans.
