Confirming the incident, Eldoret South Police boss Wilson Abduba, said that his officers managed to control the restless crowd that had started to destroy property at the venue.

“We had ‘Chaget festival‘ on Saturday which was to run from 6pm-6am and things were smooth until 2am when more than 5, 000 fans attending the event started demanding for Harmonize to perform. Reports we have indicated that there was disagreement on payment,” Mr Abduba told Nairobi News in his office.

The standoff between Hamonize and the organizers of the event left him stranded at Starbucks Hotel over unpaid bills. The Kwangwaru hit maker and his team were unable to settle the bills after they were abandoned by the promoter.

They were later on allowed to leave the hotel at around 1pm after interventions by Harmonize’s Kenyan friends.

On Friday, the Wasafi artiste had been accorded a heroic welcome in Eldoret hence bringing the town to a standstill. He went ahead to do sound checks at the venue of the event confirming that he was ready to entertain his Kenyan fans.
