Ghanaian artists, R2bees and King Promise, did not show up as well. According to the latter, he failed to show up for the music concert because of safety issues.
Wizkid was booked to headline a 10th December 2022 musical concert organized by Live Hub Entertainment.
However, the Nigerian musician did not appear despite fans filling the Ohene Djan Sports Stadium in Accra for the show.
King Promise who was part of the show, but didn’t show up has been pushed to explain why he followed Wizkid to deny fans a show they were paid for.
Via a press statement, he said: “Performing for my fans is my topmost priority. I don’t take the love and support you show me for granted. What I will never do is compromise your safety no matter how much I’m paid for a show.
“It’s your unflinching support that makes me who I am. I profusely apologize for last night’s mishap. I PROMISE to make it up to you really really soon. God bless and keep you safe,” King Promise concluded.
Meanwhile, according to some fans, King Promise did not show up for the show because he was walking in the footsteps of the Nigerian singer.
Another fan added that “why do I feel like he was waiting for wizkid to come and apologize before? and besides what he said was similar to what wizkid came out to say… Charlie, promise you’re our own we have seen you on different stages in this country with zero security yet you performed“.
Asked about his absence at the Wizkid concert today on Hitz FM King Promise said Wizkid is not his boss and he didn’t cancel the show because of him.
“There are certain sides of the story that when it’s time I will tell you,” he told Doreen Avio, host of the show. Asked if he canceled the show to show allegiance to Wizkid ‘his boss’, he replied “first of all that’s my friend. Secondly, my allegiance has always been with Ghanaians“.
King Promise failed to explain what made the show unsafe for him and his fans.
