Reason Why Joburg Cancelled Burna Boy's Show

Sedote Nwachukwu, who is a CEO of a prominent entertainment company, Ternary Media Group, who are the organisers of the show, is accused of stealing R10m from the company.

Nwachukwu was in charge of organising the Burna Boy concert which was supposed to take place this Saturday at FNB stadium, but due to pending legal proceedings, the event had been postponed to December 16.

Asked if the concert was cancelled due to low ticket sales, Ternary Media Group spokesperson, Kymoni Jackson, responded that the reason for the cancellation was due to the alleged R10m theft.

He [Nwachukwu] stole R10m; that’s why we had to call it off. He lied to everyone who was part of the event and his investor Gregory Wings. We are willing to refund people.
