Lauryn Hill Misses Lagos Show, Explains Why

American singer Lauryn Hill has revealed she will not be in Lagos
tonight for the May Day Live concert which holds at the Eko Hotel & Suites
in Lagos. According to her, she tried all her best to make it to Nigeria today
for the show, but the promoter failed on his part. Below is what she wrote on
her official website apologising to her fans in Nigeria about her painful
absence and the next step.

“Hello Lagos, Nigeria! 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,” the statement
began.

‘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! Ms. Lauryn Hill and the MLH band and Production Team,’ the
statement reads in full.
