Ghanaian comedian and entertainer Lekzy Decomic has revealed a disturbing incident that occurred backstage after one of his comedy shows, describing how a politician allegedly grabbed him by the neck in a confrontation.
According to Lekzy Decomic, the incident happened soon after he finished his performance when he was heading off the stage. He said that a well‑known politician approached him and, without warning, grabbed him by the neck in a manner that shocked both him and others nearby. The comedian described feeling startled and taken aback by the aggressive behaviour.
Speaking about the episode in an interview, Lekzy Decomic explained that he had no prior conflict with the politician and was unsure what triggered the sudden physical altercation. He emphasised that the situation was completely unexpected and left him in disbelief, especially given that it occurred in what should have been a celebratory atmosphere following a successful show.
He added that event staff and colleagues quickly intervened to pull the politician away and diffuse the situation before it escalated further. Lekzy said he chose not to retaliate or respond violently, instead deciding to leave the area and focus on his own safety.
The comedian also pointed out that the incident has raised serious concerns about professionalism and personal conduct, especially among public figures. He said that entertainers and audience members alike should be able to perform and attend events without fear of being physically confronted by others, regardless of status or position.
Lekzy Decomic noted that he is considering taking further action if necessary, but he wants to handle the matter responsibly and through appropriate channels. He said he hopes the politician involved will reflect on his actions and understand the importance of respecting others.
Fans and colleagues have expressed support for Lekzy Decomic since he shared his experience, with many condemning the alleged behaviour and urging public figures to set better examples. Some have also called for clear consequences for anyone who engages in unprofessional conduct at events.
The incident has sparked conversations online about respect, safety and boundaries in the entertainment industry, as well as how disputes should be managed without resorting to violence or intimidation.
