Promoters accuse Tems of cancelling Kenya show after receiving payment

Promoters who were bringing award-winning Nigerian singer Tems into the country for a show have released a statement following the show's cancellation.

Tukutane Entertainment released a statement claiming the musician cancelled the show despite her receiving full payment for the show.

Part of their statement read:

"As at three 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 doesn't want to perform for her Kenyan fans. We were shook, heartbroken and financially wounded."
