According to the Kokovha star took to Instagram Live, on Monday, to address the backlash, and explained that she had no intention of shoving the dancer off stage.
“I was trying to push her to come in front of the stage. Unfortunately, my mind was… focussing on the crowd and her. That’s why I didn’t notice that [when I pushed her, she fell off the stage],” the songstress said.
Makhadzi added that she was trying to prevent the dancer from pouring water on stage and possibly posing a danger to her and other dancers who may have slipped.
Here is the video clip of Makhadzi clearing the air around the shoving incident:
