Nigerian Singer Tems Cancels Nairobi Concert.

Nigerian singer Tems has cancelled her concert that was to happen on October 15th.

The singer tweeted earlier today saying,
“ Hey Kenya. Honestly, it’s quite heartbreaking to say this but I will not be able to perform at the Tukutane Festival due to circumstances beyond my control. I am as disappointed as you are but I look forward to coming and giving you a show that you deserve. Love you all.

Meanwhile, the organizers of the concert, Tukutane Kenya, have issued a statement, pretty much accusing Tems of blindsiding them. “As at 3 days ago, all was going according to schedule and plan. We paid for Tems in full 15 days before the performance date and to our surprise as soon as the payment was made, her manager mentioned that she is no longer comfortable coming to Kenya and just does not want to perform for her Kenyan fans. We were shook, heartbroken and financially wounded,” Reads the statement in part.

They further apologized to fans and promised to reschedule to a later date “which will be announced in a few days.”
