Earlier today, social media was awash with rumours that Cinderalla Sanyu was ‘kidnapped’ in DR. Congo. It has now come to our attention that the Sample Dat singer, together with her manager was held hostage in Dr. Congo.
“Cindy was contracted to perform in Lubumbashi, D.R. Congo at a concert that was supposed to take place on Monday 30th June 2014. She then arrived in Congo with one of her managers on Sunday 29th June just in time for the show.
“The promoter then cancelled the show that was due to take place on Monday for reasons un-known to us. He then
suggested Cindy instead performs on Saturday 5th July which Cindy rejected due to the fact that she already had other bookings scheduled for that weekend,” Rowland Gaucho Nkahebwa Cindy’s Public Relations Officer told Campusbee.
He revealed that the promoter then decided to hold Cindy and her manager hostage and confiscated their passports. “Cindy then contacted her team in Kampala who in turn contacted the Ugandan Embassy in Kinshasa who then contacted the Governor of Lubumbashi who came to their rescue. Travel arrangements were made for them to leave
Lubumbashi immediately,” he added.
She arrived in Kigali, Rwanda last night for the celebration of the 20th Liberation day of Rwanda where she is expected to perform alongside Davido from Nigeria scheduled for friday 4th July at Amahooro stadium.
