GIST: WTF? Only 50 People Attend 2face's Rwandan Concert
A surprising thing happened last weekend in Rwanda, when Nigerian
music legend, 2face Idibia, when he was treated like an unknown artiste
in the country with only
50 people attending his concert.
The scantily attended event, made possible by Belinda Umurerwa, who
owns the event company, Kigali Entertainment Promoters, happened due to
the inability of the organisers to convince people to attend
the show,this according to many happened due to poor timing.
The concert, which should have been a success as his last, back in
2006, flopped. The scheduled time of 6pm, was to 10p.m due to the empty
seats that greeted the organizers. 
According to New Rwanda Times, the ‘African
Queen’ star, came on stage at about 11:30p.m, which was after several
hours of dialogue between his management and the organisers of the
show. He immediately apologized to the few who made it to the show,
promising to deliver “unique” performances
“Hello Kigali. I know you’re very few bu t we don’t want to talk
about whatever happened. I am going to do a unique show for you who
managed to come”, he said.
Rwandan press, said the show which would have been a success failed
due to the organizers inability to adequately promote the show.
