The renowned Afrobeat musician has kicked off his summer tour, which had been on hold because of his trial.
Earlier today, May 25, 2023, he announced that he is off to Zurich, Switzerland where his concert will begin tonight.
“Euro tour kicks off tonight in Zurich,” he wrote on his Instagram stories, along with picture of himself in an airplane.

He had initially shared details of his Europe tour last month, which was set to hold from May 20-August 16, 2023 across the UK, Italy, Spain, and Slovenia.
His tour was temporarily on hold after the 40-year-old got arrested on May 15, 2023 after he was filmed assaulting a police officer on the Third Mainland Bridge.
