Stephen Uwa, a performance promoter, has explained why Nigerian musician Kizz Daniel was detained in Tanzania. Recall that it had been previously reported on how Kizz Daniel’s refusal to perform angered the audience, resulting in his detention in the nation.
He made this known. In an interview with Daddy Freeze, he said that Kizz Daniel declined to perform because the airline forgot to carry his bag holding all of his gold chains and insisted he would not play unless he was wearing them all.
”Kizz Daniel said the airline didn’t bring his bag that is why he cannot perform because his gold chain is not there and he had a gold chain on his neck. He wanted everything.”
Uwa claimed to have spent no less than $300,000 on the concert, including $60,000 for Kizz Daniel’s fee to participate.

Despite this, the singer’s performance flopped miserably. He claimed to be sobbing and pleading with Kizz Daniel to perform but Kizz Daniel refused.
He said:
”My company is new here. Paulo is the one I booked Kizz Daniel from. Paulo cried all night trying to beg this guy ‘Please go to this show, he called in from America!
I paid Kizz Daniel $60, 000 to perform on this show. I went down on my knees. I was like ‘Bro, you are damaging me. I am trying to build my company here. You are going to damage me. I begged this guy ‘Save my career, save me”. I was on the table with Kizz Daniel for like five hours begging him, kneeling for him”
Chronicle NG reports that Kizz Daniel has also been invited by police for questioning in Nigeria following allegations that he stole his drycleaner’s laundry van.
