Koffi Olomide's Zambia concert cancelled for assaulting female dancer


Koffi Olomide’s Zambia concert has been
cancelled after he assaulted one of his female
dancers at Nairobi’s JKIA last Friday.
The Rhumba maestro was arrested after a video
of him assaulting one of his dancers went viral,
sparking outrage and condemnation on social
media.
The Congolese Musician was scheduled to
perform at this year’s 90th Show at the Zambia’s
Agricultural And Commercial Society. The
President of the management Committee Ben
Shoko said on Sunday that the cancellation
follows the unfortunate incident at Kenya’s
Airport.
Olomide was deported to Kinshasa, DRC by
Kenya Airways after he spent Friday night at
JKIA’s police cell. He was arrested outside Royal
Media Services offices on Friday evening shortly
after his interview with Citizen TV.
The musician has, however, apologised for his
behaviour. In a post on his official Facebook
page on Sunday, the singer apologised to his
fans, especially "women and children", asking for
forgiveness.
"I profoundly regret what happened... it was a
moment of madness," Olomide told Congolese
national broadcaster RTNC, in an interview
attached to the Facebook post.
The star also apologised directly to the people of
the Democratic Republic of the Congo who may
have felt "dishonoured by this behaviour".
During the interview, Koffi denied assaulting the
dancer, identified as Pamela.
His lawyer George Wajackoyah also accused the
police of manhandling the musician.
"The right procedure was not followed in
deporting Olomide," he said during a press
conference on Saturday." said Wajackoyah
