Simi told her Lagos fans that her concert scheduled for December 5 would still hold.
Nigerian singer, Simisola Kosoko, popularly known as Simi, has announced that her planned SimiLive Abuja concert has been put on hold due to unresolved logistical arrangements with the venue.
The singer made the announcement in a message to her fans on Saturday, expressing disappointment over the development and apologising to those who had bought tickets and looked forward to the show.
“It hurts my heart to say this, but we have to put the SimiLive ABUJA show on hold for right now,” she said.
Explaining the reason for the decision, Simi said the venue arrangements had not come together as expected, despite her earlier announcement of the concert.
“Logistics with the venue have not come together as well as I had hoped. I announced the date in hopes that everything would work out in time, but they haven’t yet, and I don’t want to fail you,” she added.
The singer also apologised to fans who had purchased tickets and assured them that their money would be refunded.
“You’ve been buying tickets and getting excited, and I’m so sorry to disappoint you. We are going to refund all purchased tickets for the SIMILive ABUJA show,” she said, directing ticket holders to Partyverse for the refunds.
However, Simi reassured her Lagos fans that her concert scheduled for December 5 would still hold, although it would move to a new venue.
“LAGOS DON’T PANIC! See you on the 5th of December. We’re moving to a new venue,” she said, announcing Livespot Entertarium as the new location.
She added that other arrangements remained unchanged, with the doors expected to open at 6pm, and encouraged fans who were yet to purchase tickets to do so through her official website.
Simi is known for songs including Duduke, Joromi and Love Don’t Care.
