The event’s concert promoter in Tanzania, where Nigerian musician Kizz Daniel was scheduled to play, has provided his version of events.
After being paid to appear at a gig recently, the “Buga” singer was later detained by Tanzanian authorities.
The musician declined to perform since the airline forgot to bring his bag containing his gold chains, and he said he will not play unless he is wearing all of his gold chains, according to the show promoter, who provided his name as Stephen Uwa in an interview with Daddy Freeze.
“He said the airline didn’t bring his bag that is why he cannot perform because his gold chain is not there and he had a gold chain on his neck. He wanted everything.”
Uwa disclosed that he spent a minimum of $300,000 on the production, including $60,000 in performance fees paid to Kizz Daniel. The singer’s failure to appear, however, caused everything to fail. He disclosed that while pleading with Kizz Daniel to perform, he declined while he was on his knees sobbing.
“My company is new here. PaulO is the one I booked Kizz from. PaulO cried all night trying to beg this guy ‘Please go to this show’, he called in from America!”
“I paid this guy $60,000 to perform on this show. I went down on my knees. I was like ‘Bro, you are damaging me. I am trying to build my company here. You are going to damage me’. I begged this guy ‘Save my career, save me”. I was on the table with Kizz Daniel for like five hours begging him, kneeling for him.”
