At the newly constructed Parc des Expositions in Abidjan, a star-studded lineup of African music heavyweights, including Yemi Alade and, reportedly, Kizz Daniel, was announced and were set to captivate both the live audience and viewers worldwide.

It is said that he was subsequently apprehended by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) authorities and is presently in detention.
