The promoter who spoke with an air of dejection had granted an online interview to media personality, Freeze and had opened up on Kizz Daniel's excuse for not making an appearance at the show.
According to him, the Buga star, had claimed that he couldn't perform as wasn't in possession of his travelling bag which had his gold chain in it and couldn't perform without said claim. Ojiekhudu had further revealed that while his company was new, in the country, he'd spent nothing less than $300,000 putting it together with tables ranging from $5,000 to $10,000.
