Ms Lauryn Hill was unable to attend the May Day concert in Nigeria, which was scheduled to take place at the Eko Hotels & Suites. This gig would have seen Ms. Hill performing alongside a 20-man band. However, in a message posted on Hill’s facebook yesterday, the Grammy award winning artist and her team issued an apology for missing the show. Miss Lauryn also recorded a message for Nigeria, read part of the statement and watch the message for Nigeria in full below.
“We are disappointed to report that we will not be performing at tonight’s concert. From our end, we did everything we were supposed to do, including waiting at the airport for many hours, ready to fly out and share the evening with you. Unfortunately, after much effort, the promoter was not able to get all of our travel arrangements taken care of. This prevented us from being able to fly into Nigeria in time to make the concert. We were all very excited to come, and very disappointed that we couldn’t make this one. HOWEVER, we are working to reschedule our appearance ASAP. From what we’ve been told, the promoter intends to honor all tickets sold. Our best to and for Lagos. Love and Blessings!”What do you think?
