OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM FURAHA CITY FESTIVAL ORGANIZERS

We deeply regret to announce that Diamond Platnumz did not perform at the Furaha City Festival as scheduled. As organizers, we made every effort to accommodate him and his team, ensuring that all plans and contingencies were in place for a seamless experience. Despite our best efforts, his team behavior and demands proved regrettable and unnecessarily overbearing.

While we acknowledge there was a minor security issue involving another artist, we swiftly resolved it and ensured that the event continued in a safe and professional manner. We believe in treating all artists equally and maintaining high-quality standards for everyone involved.

We are, however, incredibly proud of the remarkable performances delivered by all the other artists. Kenyan artists outdid themselves and we are proud. Their impeccable talent, energy, and professionalism were evident throughout the festival, and they gave their all to ensure the audience had an unforgettable experience. We thank Rayvanny and Wasafi’s Zuchu for their performance as well.

We respect Diamond Platnumz’s position as a top-tier artist, but we also expect mutual professionalism and respect in such collaborations. Moving forward, we are committed to resolving these matters amicably and learning from this experience to ensure even greater success for future editions of Furaha City Festival.

To our fans, partners, and performers, thank you for your unwavering support and for making Furaha City Festival a remarkable celebration of culture, music, and unity.

Signed,

Furaha City Festival Organizing Team
