Quilox release statement, photos on the altercation involving Oritsefemi & a bouncer – “In the early hours of the 12th of November 2016, an unfortunate incident occurred betweenmusic act Oritsefemi and a member of the security team at Club QuiloxThe incident started at about 2am Saturday morning when Oritsefemi came into Quilox without prior reservations or table bookings.
It is important to note that tables are allocated
to customers who have made prior paid table bookings in advance of their arrival except such customer is a patron or member of the club
and tables are allocated according to availability in such case.
However Oritsefemi who did not fall into any of the categories above approached a patron and
after pleading was accommodated on patrons
table, but with the understanding that other
guests of the said patron were still been expected to join the table shortly which
Oritsefemi agreed to. It is important to note that this is a table that could only accommodate a maximum of six people.
In a surprising turn of events, Oristsemi who was drinking from the patrons bottle, threw
caution to the wind by attempting to sit eight
of his guests at the table, the surprised Patron strongly rejected such effrontery and invited the bouncer guarding the floor to intervene.The bouncer politely approached Oritsefemi
and told him that the Patron who owned the table did not want any of Oritsefemi’s guest
joining in as the patrons guests were still being expected.
However Oristefemi in a fit of unprovoked rage slapped the bouncer then proceeded to
breaking a glass in his hand and stabing him in the eye. Despite his position or the power he
thinks he has as a celebrity, this is not an excuse for inflicting grave bodily harm on
another human being.
The scene quickly became rowdy as other customers rushed to the table and confronted the artist for his violent behavior, our security team quickly stepped in to salvage the situation by carrying Oristefemi out of the club whil other members of staff focused on giving First aid treatment to the bouncer who almost lost his eye and had already lost so much blood.
