This came after the music maestro had shared the photos of his ‘plastered face’ and a post on his Instagram page on Monday.

The post thereafter stirred mixed reactions on social media, especially from Charly Boy’s fans, with many expressing sadness that he was in a critical condition at the hospital.

However, the Areafada, as his is fondly called by fans, however told our reporter that the accident was mild and he was now fine and back on his feet.

He said: “There is no need to worry as it was just ‘some minor scratches’ on my face.

“I was just moving around with my scooter in my street, when I accidentally fell; but I’m now very fine, and the wounds on my face are healing fast.”
