It turns out that the much anticipated ‘Wizkid Live in Kampala’ concert will not take place this Saturday – as earlier planned – after Starboy failed to fly out of the US, according to the organizers of the event.

In a statement issued Friday, FACETV said that because of “unavoidable circumstances”, the 26-year-old musician, whose real name is Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogum, was “unable” to jet into Uganda from the US city of Los Angeles.

His much-awaited concert was due this Saturday at Lugogo Cricket Oval in Kampala.

While it will undoubtedly be a let-down for his Ugandan fans who had long awaited his coming, the Nigerian recording artist, songwriter and performer, “distraught” by his failure to make it into the country, sent his “love and apologies to the Ugandan people”.

Meanwhile, the Kampala concert organizers say they are in contact with the Nigerian artist to have another date fixed.
