Singer Inetimi Odon, known professionally as Timaya, fell on stage while performing at the Gbaramatu Christmas Carnival in Delta State.

Audience members initially gasped, but the atmosphere quickly returned to festivities as Timaya stood up and continued his performance. Neither the singer nor the fan were reported to have been injured.
The moment was widely shared on platforms such as X (formerly Twitter) and drew attention from fans online.
