Mambo Dhuterere ‘blasts’ manager, promoter

Dhuterere expressed his disappointment in a Facebook statement.

MUSICIAN Mambo Dhuterere has expressed disappointment after a disagreement between his manager and a promoter led to the cancellation of his tour to the United Kingdom.

Dhuterere expressed his disappointment in a Facebook statement.

Dhuterere was scheduled to perform at the Africa Music Festival in the United Kingdom on Saturday, ending today (Sunday). Other notable performers included Nkosazana Daughter, Alice Macheso, Koffie Olomide, Makhadzi, Tocky Vibes, and others.

The tour was cancelled at the last minute due to a misunderstanding between Dhuterere's manager and the promoter, Y2K Entertainment.

“It's unfortunate we won't be attending due to little misunderstanding,” Dhuterere said.

“I personally thank Y2K for believing in me and including me among such great African artists, as well as our fans in Europe.

“They obtained my visa and purchased tickets for everyone, but my management insisted on receiving payment before departure.

“The contract stipulates that we should be paid before leaving for the tour.

“I am heartbroken, and I know my supporters feel the same way.

“This misunderstanding between my manager and the promoter has significantly impacted me and my fans.

“People sacrifice a lot to come and watch me perform, and I also sacrifice a lot to perform for my fans. It's unfortunate that this has happened.”

Meanwhile, the artist is set to release an album dubbed Kudenga Kuna Manuwere later this year.
