December 1, 2019, marked a dramatic day for Kenyan music producer Magix Enga, as he and his music promoter Maurice were reportedly 'arrested' by police officers.
However, many fans and social media users believe that the whole incident was staged for publicity, citing the presence of earrings on one of the police officers involved.
According to a source close to the incident, Magix Enga likes to stir things up and the arrest was a great experience for him.
The alleged arrest was reportedly linked to Harmonize's song 'Uno,' where Magix Enga accused the Tanzanian hitmaker of jacking his beats.
Twitter users shared their reactions to the incident, with some calling it 'fully scripted' and others questioning the authenticity of the arrest.
