Happened because its rasta...
I usually get a slightly larger allen wrench and tap it in with a hammer at an angle and it works fine.

can you get a bigger size allen key in the bolt to loosen it off if just get a size bigger hammer it in there and turn and keep pressure on the allen key while turning to minimize risk of slipping if that does not work your gonna have to drill it out and retap it

Try soaking it in pb blaster, NOT wd40 and drill it from the bottom so the drill bit will turn and push the bolt out

Hammer a 1/4 allen key into it. If not, drill it out, or if its hanging out enough, use vice grips or pliers to take it out
