Nigerian rapper A-Q has survived a frightening attack in Accra, Ghana, after a group of masked men ar.med with machetes reportedly cornered him during a walk in the East Legon area. The incident left the musician injured and in need of emergency medical attention.
A-Q said his att@ckers arrived on five motorcycles, with about ten men surrounding him. While some of the riders attempted to trap him, the men riding behind them allegedly swung machetes at him. One of the blows struck his elbow as he tried to protect himself from a strike aimed at his head.
Despite the att@ck, the rapper managed to break free and make his way across the road. A passerby stopped to help him and took him to a hospital, where he underwent surgery for his injuries.
The incident has been reported to the Ghana Police Service, which is investigating the circumstances surrounding the attack. A-Q has since moved to a safe location while investigators work to establish the identities of those involved and determine why he was targeted.
In his account of the incident, the rapper described the frightening experience and expressed gratitude to the person who helped him, as well as the medical professionals who provided treatment.
"On Saturday, 17 October, at around 10pm, I was attacked while out on a walk in East Legon, Accra.
" About ten masked men on five motorcycles surrounded me. The riders3 tried to box me into a corner while the men on the back swung machetes at me. My elbow took a blow that was meant for my head. I managed to break away and run across the road, where a good Samaritan picked me up and rushed me to hospital. I was taken straight into surgery and my injuries were treated.
" The attack has been reported to the Ghana Police Service and is being investigated. I am now in a safe place while the police work to establish who was behind it and why.
"To the stranger who stopped for me that night, and to the doctors and nurses who cared for me: thank you.
"To my friends, fans and well-wishers: please don't worry, I am well by God's grace. I ask that you don't speculate about who was responsible or direct anger at anyone. Let the police do their work, and if you have any information, please share it with them.
" Peace and love always. ❤️
— A-Q".
The rapper has also appealed for restraint as the investigation continues, warning against making assumptions about who may have organised the attack. He wants anyone with relevant information to contact the police rather than accuse individuals without evidence.
For now, the investigation remains ongoing, and the motive behind the incident has not been established publicly. A-Q's immediate concern is his recovery as the authorities work to uncover what happened and identify those responsible.
