Ruger, a rapidly emerging artist better known by his stage name Michael Adebayo Olayinka, has stirred up controversy on social media after videos of him performing with female fans surfaced.
Numerous videos of the singer's performances have surfaced on social media following his Canada tour, which began on Friday, June 2, and ended on Saturday, June 10.
The singer was shown in the videos pressing and fondling the women's posteriors and receiving lap dances, among other actions that many have referred to as harassment.
While social media users' opinions to the videos have been diverse, many have chastised the musician for sexualizing women at every performance he appears at.
Others have counseled Ruger to use caution in his interactions with the women on stage.

Opresii: "That Ruger guy ein management no wise"
LouieDi13: "Ruger is exposing how these girls be around celebrities. If they do this on stage, what do you think they’ll do in private? What if it was Davido, Wizkid, Burna , Dave, Central CEE, Skepta or BIG DRAKE?"
