Nigeria: Kizz Daniel Apologises to Tanzanians, Promises Free Show for Fans

“I didn’t mean to disrespect the fans. It was never intentional. I wanted to perform”.
Nigerian music star Kizz Daniel has apologised to Tanzanian music fans for failing to show up at a Summer Amplified Show.
Str8up Vibes organised the event.
The organisers arrested the Buga hitmaker for failing to perform at Sunday night’s well-publicised show.
The singer’s absence angered fans who came to see him perform, causing them to thrash the show’s venue.
The organisers of the Summer Amplified Show in Tanzania arrested the Buga hitmaker for failing to perform at the well-publicised show on Sunday night.
In an interview session with radio personality Daddy Freeze, the show promoter Steven Uwa said that Kizz Daniel opted out of the show because the airline he flew with did not bring all his baggage.

The show promoter revealed that Kizz Daniel was booked for $60,000.
He also revealed that he spent nothing less than $300,000 on the show because it was a premium event.
He also lamented the flimsy reason the singer gave after he failed to perform and explained why he got him arrested.
Apologies
Addressing a press conference in Tanzania, Kizz Daniel said he had agreed with Str8up Vibes that the show must go on.
“We agreed to put up a show on Friday. A free show. So, I will be partnering with Str8up Vibes.

Also, I must apologise to the fans. None of this was intentional. I love my job. Mainly, I love performing.
“I didn’t mean to disrespect the fans. It was never intentional. I wanted to perform. I came to Tanzania to perform, but due to some circumstances way over my power, we couldn’t make that happen.

“I apologise once again to the people of Tanzania, and I hope you guys give me another chance to give you a show, to give you a proper show, a beautiful show,” the ‘Buga’ crooner said.
Reasons for absence
Explaining the reason behind his missing the show, Kizz Daniel said when he arrived in Nairobi from Kampala, the plane he was supposed to fly in (connecting flight) had already departed.
He then stayed in Nairobi for eight hours and got a connecting flight at 8:30 p.m.
Upon arriving in Dar es Salaam, he said he discovered that some of his belongings had been forgotten.
“The organisers assured me we’d get other equipment. We arrived at the hotel at 9 p.m. and sent my band to the hall to practice.
“Unfortunately, the band failed because the fans had already entered the venue.
“I tried contacting the designers here to get clothes. When I decided to leave the venue, I was told it was unsafe already. The fans got angry”.
“We agreed with the organisers that we will apologise to the fans and organise another show.
“On the second day, news spread and the police followed me to the hotel, not to arrest me but to question me about what happened,” he said.

Children among 31 killed at church fair stampede in Nigeria

A stampede Saturday at a church charity event in southern Nigeria left 31 people dead and seven injured, police told The Associated Press, a shocking development at a program that aimed to offer hope to the needy. One witness said the dead included a pregnant woman and many children.
The stampede at the event organized by the Kings Assembly Pentecostal church in Rivers state involved people who came to the church’s annual “Shop for Free” charity program, according to Grace Iringe-Koko, a police spokeswoman.
Such events are common in Nigeria, Africa’s largest economy, where more than 80 million people live in poverty, according to government statistics.
Saturday’s charity program was supposed to begin at 9 a.m. but dozens arrived as early as 5 a.m. to secure their place in line, Iringe-Koko said. Somehow the locked gate was broken open, creating a stampede, she said.Best of Express PremiumPremiumPremiumPremiumPremium

Godwin Tepikor from Nigeria’s National Emergency Management Agency said first responders were able to evacuate the bodies of those trampled to death and bring them to the morgue. Security forces cordoned off the area.
Dozens of residents later thronged the scene, mourning the dead and offering any assistance they could to emergency workers. Doctors and emergency workers treated some of the injured as they lay in the open field. Videos from the scene showed the clothing, shoes and other items meant for the beneficiaries.
One witness who only identified himself as Daniel said “there were so many children” among the dead. Five of the dead children were from one mother, he told the AP, adding that a pregnant woman also lost her life.
Some church members were attacked and injured by relatives of the victims after the stampede, according to witness Christopher Eze. The church declined to comment on the situation.
The police spokeswoman said the seven injured were “responding to treatment.”
The “Shop for Free” event was suspended while authorities investigated how the stampede occurred.
Nigeria has seen similar stampedes in the past.
Twenty-four people died at an overcrowded church gathering in the southeastern state of Anambra in 2013, while at least 16 people were killed in 2014 when a crowd got out of control during a screening for government jobs in the nation’s capital, Abuja.

Nigeria: Train Attack – What Nigerian Govt Is Doing to Free Kidnapped Passengers – Minister

“The various arms of security are working night and day to unravel the mystery surrounding the attack as a whole and the kidnapped people.”
The Nigerian government says it is doing all it can to free the dozens of people kidnapped from a train in Kaduna last month.
Information minister Lai Mohammed said though the government would not disclose details of its efforts to the media, “what I can assure you is that as we speak, the respective arms of the government are actually engaged in getting those victims released.”
Mr Mohammed spoke at the end of Wednesday’s Federal Executive Council meeting presided by President Muhammadu Buhari.
“What the federal government is doing won’t be the subject matter of a press conference, because we have lives at stake. The various arms of security are working night and day to unravel the mystery surrounding the attack as a whole and the kidnapped people,” the minister said.
“What I can assure you is that as we speak, the respective arms of the government are actually engaged in getting those victims released. It’s natural for anybody who is a father or a mother of a kidnapped person to be worried and to be concerned.”

PREMIUM TIMES reported the March 28 attack on a Kaduna-bound train by gunmen. At least eight people were killed by the gunmen and dozens of other passengers were kidnapped. The gunmen have since released videos of some of the kidnapped passengers.
End to Attacks
Mr Mohammed said the military, in collaboration with other security agencies, is working hard to bring to an end the frequent attacks on innocent citizens.
He said the government is aware of the concerns of Nigerians regarding the security situation in the country.
“At the level of government, we appreciate the concerns of citizens and we are leaving no stone unturned, but we’ll not give you specific steps we’re taking. I think it will be counterproductive and not going to aid or help those who are kidnapped or help the security forces who are tracing and ensuring that there’ll be no repeat of such attacks,” he said.

PREMIUM TIMES reported that about 3,000 people were killed and almost 1,500 kidnapped in the first three months of 2022. This is according to data released by the Nigeria Security Tracker (NST), a project of the Council on Foreign Relations.
Bandits working with Boko Haram
On Wednesday, the minister also said the government is aware of a collaboration between bandits operating mainly in the North-west and members of the Boko Haram terror group, that operates mainly in the North-east of Nigeria.
“What is happening now is that there is a kind of an unholy handshake between bandits and Boko Haram insurgents. Preliminary reports of what transpired at the Kaduna train attacks show that there is a kind of collaboration between the bandits and the dislodged Boko Haram terrorists from the northeast. I can tell you very confidently that the Federal Government is on the top of this matter,” he added.

Apart from the information minister, defence minister Bashir Magashi also addressed journalists after the FEC meeting.
He said the military would soon unravel those behind the incessant attacks and banditry.
“Honestly, I think the security chiefs are working hard to unveil those that are involved, and we will tell you very soon those that are carrying out these attacks. Both in Jos and Kaduna, we will come and explain to the public what is really going on and our efforts to ensure that all these activities are stopped once and for all.
“We are really on top of the situation, we are planning hard and we will get it out as soon as possible,” he said.
Mr Magashi announced that at Wednesday’s meeting, the Federal Executive Council approved the purchase of more operational vehicles for the military.
He said they would be used for the transportation of troops and cargo to various areas where there are security challenges.

Nigerians in Ukraine Without Valid Passports Free to Return – Immigration

The head of Immigration says the government will suspend it’s rule to receive its citizens.
Nigerians with expired or invalid passports in Ukraine will be allowed back home, the Nigerian Immigration Service has said.
The acting comptroller-general of Immigration, Isah Jere, disclosed this to PREMIUM TIMES on Sunday in a phone interview.
There are over 4,000 Nigerians in the eastern European country which descended into war last week with an invasion by its neighbour, Russia.
Many Nigerians in the country are students in higher institutions of learning.
The Nigerian government had asked its nationals in Ukraine “to remain calm but be very vigilant and be responsible for their personal security and safety.”

The government asked Nigerians seeking safety to move to Hungarian or Romanian borders. Hungary and Romania approved visa-free access to all Nigerians coming from Ukraine.

“For now, movements to the Hungarian Zahony border and Romanian Suceava, Tulcea, Satu Mare County, and Maramures borders is advised, as they have approved visa free access to all Nigerians coming from Ukraine,” a statement by Gabriel Aduda, permanent secretary of the Foreign Affairs ministry, read.
Mr Jere told PREMIUM TIMES that the government has approved the entry of Nigerians without passports.
“Nigerians in Ukraine without passports are free to travel back to Nigeria. We have spoken to the airlines and other operators to allow them. It is not their fault,” he said.
“During COVID-19 we could not travel and the passports were fixed to expire on a certain date so we cannot stop it. Each passing day, it draws closer to its expiration date.
“The Minister has approved that any Nigerian whether studying there or not can return, they will renew it here,” he added.
