Nigerian entertainer and social media personality DJ Chicken found himself at the center of controversy once again on November 1, 2025, following a road accident in Sagamu, Ogun State. According to eyewitnesses and social media reports, DJ Chicken’s vehicle collided with a motorcycle carrying a rider and a female passenger who sustained injuries in the crash.

The incident quickly escalated as onlookers confronted DJ Chicken at the scene. Videos circulating online show the DJ being physically assaulted by some members of the public, who accused him of reckless driving and attempting to evade responsibility. Witnesses stated that the enraged crowd ordered him to remain at the scene, and when he initially tried to leave, they overpowered him to prevent an escape.

Eyewitness testimonies describe chaotic scenes unfolding moments after the collision. According to influencer Oyindamola, who shared footage from the incident on social media, “DJ Chicken’s car collided with the motorcycle, and both the rider and passenger were hurt. The locals did not want him to go free because they said his driving habits have caused problems before.” Several voices in the background of the video allege a pattern of reckless behavior associated with the entertainer’s driving style.

This event is not an isolated case in DJ Chicken’s controversial public life. The entertainer has been involved in multiple public disputes and widely condemned for previous reckless behavior and contentious remarks about other Nigerian celebrities such as Grammy-nominated singer Davido and his wife Chioma. DJ Chicken’s provocative public persona has earned him both followers and critics on social platforms, but the repeated incidents involving reckless driving have intensified public scrutiny.

Social media reactions to the Sagamu accident have been mixed. Some users justified the crowd’s forceful response, expressing frustration over repeated incidents attributed to DJ Chicken’s driving. One Twitter user commented, “This guy will just spoil his life with his stupid attitude. Can’t count the number of times he has been in this type of situation in recent months.” Others called for humane treatment and legal action rather than street justice.

Traffic and road safety experts emphasize that reckless driving and hit-and-run incidents remain a critical issue in Nigeria. “Incidents like this highlight the urgent need for awareness campaigns and stricter enforcement of traffic laws to protect vulnerable road users such as motorcyclists and pedestrians,” noted a Lagos-based transport safety consultant.

Following the altercation, it is unclear whether DJ Chicken faced immediate legal consequences, but local authorities are expected to investigate the crash and public violence. The injured motorcyclist and passenger were reportedly taken to a nearby hospital, though no official update on their condition has been released.

In conclusion, DJ Chicken’s accident in Sagamu serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of reckless driving and the volatile reactions it can provoke in communities. The incident calls for stronger measures to address traffic safety and responsible driving while underscoring the potential consequences of fame when combined with controversial behavior. The next steps will likely involve legal proceedings and public discourse on preventing similar occurrences in Nigeria’s busy urban settings.
