Apparently, Burna Boy's South Africa show reportedly cancelled amid controversy

Apparently there are reports that Burna Boy's planned show in South Africa has been cancelled amid controversy.

According to South Africa's media house, Timeslive, the organizers said they have decided to cancel the show because of the outrage it had created and the controversy surrounding the show. It also reports that the organizers of the show had spoken to Burna Boy's management as they decided to withdraw him from the concert and cancel his show.

Here is the statement from the organizers of the show:

"The decision to cancel the Africans Unite Concert comes after the call from the Tshwane Entertainment Collective to boycott the Africans Unite concert in Tshwane. With the increasing threats of violence from other unfortunate segments of the public and without any government intervention, Phambili Media and Play Network Africa were prompted to take the threats and warnings seriously, as the safety of all artists and attendees could not be guaranteed. We then decided to cancel the concert. The safety of all attendees, artists, and crew comes first."

They also stated that the decision to cancel the shows came due to warnings of a shutdown from a group of artists and event organisers under the umbrella of Tshwane Entertainment Collective. 

The cancellation is coming not too long after South African rapper AKA demanded an apology from Burna Boy.
