Popular singer, Kizz Daniel has debunked reports of being arrested in Ivory Coast and being detained by CAF over alleged refusal to perform.
Reports made the rounds yesterday alleging that the Afropop singer was arrested in Abidjan, the capital city of Ivory Coast for failing to perform after being paid.
However, Kizz Daniel has released a statement on his Instagram page to debunk these reports.
He noted that the organizers failed to pay for his performance despite the signed contract which states clearly that no pay no performance.
According to him, when he touched down the city, the organizers still hadn’t paid but he performed regardless.
He stated that he took his leave when his team was assaulted backstage.
