Disappointed with the organization, Jeeba leaves the concert before his visit

From January 12 to 15, Dakar is hosting the 8th edition of the All-Africa Music Awards (AFRIMA). This award ceremony rewarding the best artists on the continent is also a moment of celebration. Thus, as part of this event, a concert was organized on Friday, January 13, at the esplanade of the Museum of Black Civilizations. This moment of entertainment saw several national and international artists succeed each other on the stage. Among them was the young singer Jeeba, nominated for the AFRIMA in the category of the most promising artist of the year.

When it was time for him to go on stage, a surreal scene will occur. The Ivorian animator Willy Dumbo will, of course, announce it to the public. Radio silence. Noting that the artist was still not there, the host of 2STV, Pape Sidy Fall will once again announce the arrival of the interpreter of the title “Lamou saff”. Again, no trace of the singer. Behind the scenes of the show, it is agitated. The organizers are desperate for Jeeba. “He’s gone,” announces a staff member. The hosts of the show then decide to continue the evening with passages from other artists, especially since Tiwa Savage and PSQUARE were waiting for their turns.

Wanting to know a little more, Seneweb learned from the organization that the singer artist had problems with his dressing room and that he had preferred to wait in his car parked in the parking lot of the museum. A wait that would have been too long – due to a big delay in the start of the concert – and pushed Jeeba to start his vehicle to leave.

A version confirmed by the artist’s agent, joined by Seneweb, who adds that his protege had only been informed of his passage on D-Day.
