Edem has shared his side of the story after a video depicting him being shoved by Sarkodie’s bodyguard at an event trended online.
In the viral video, Sarkodie and his entourage, while performing at the 40th birthday bash of businessman Richard Nii-Armah Quaye on March 22, 2025, were seen making their way through the crowd to the stage.
Edem was spotted getting on the path of Sarkodie and was immediately shoved aside by a bodyguard.
However, in an interview with 3Music TV on March 24, 2025, Edem explained the incident, claiming that he wasn’t attempting to reach out to Sarkodie as people on social media suggested.
According to him, he was pushed from behind into the path, and the bodyguard was just doing his job to ensure that Sarkodie wasn’t interrupted.
“This was a walkway where everybody was. So, I think they pushed a couple of people. They were going to perform, and I had a glass of champagne in my hand, but somebody pushed me from the back, so I moved a little.
“And his security guys also did the right thing by trying to make sure that they go and do their work. It's as simple as that,” he stated.
He continued, “I don't know who pushed me, but there was a lot going on. I don’t have to come and explain because this is nothing. He (Sarkodie) was on the way to work. I would also do the same thing. It's not anything crazy like that.”
Edem further stated that he isn’t bothered by the comments, adding that he has no issue with Sarkodie or anyone else.
“Agenda boys have to eat. You know, it’s irrelevant things we like in this town. I'm the one there. I'm the one holding the champagne. How can I be bothered? I can't be bothered.
"Sarkodie even walked up to me when he was done performing on stage. It doesn't matter. We can't worry about opinions now. We worry about facts,” he said.
