Legendary singer gets 1-yr prison term for kicking woman

Soukous legend

According to

Last week a footage of the legendary singer physically assaulting a woman in Kenya went viral. Olomide's performance which was scheduled during the 2016 90th Show at the Zambia’s Agricultural And Commercial Society, was cancelled following his incorrigible actions at the airport where he beat up the dancer.

The President of the management Committee, Ben Shoko, disclosed on Sunday, July 24, 2016 that the cancellation is a direct result of Olomide's actions at the airport.

Koffi Olomide has been arrested and questioned on orders of the Attorney-General. "May the righteousness of man be just and fair" wrote the singer on his Facebook page.

He also apologized during his interview with Congolese national broadcaster RTNC.
