His now-cancelled tour dates for December were booked for Abuja, Benin, and Lagos.

He was also billed to perform at the Hey Neighbour Festival in South Africa on December 9.

It is not clear whether fans who have already bought tickets will be refunded or have their tickets carried over to new dates in 2024.
