Coming off the heels of his failure to perform at Wizkid\u2019s controversial concert at the Accra Sports Stadium, many had feared the worst at King Promise\u2019s flagship show.<\/p>\n

Already, the \u2018Ring My Bell\u2019 hitmaker had apologised multiple times for the incident despite his initial rejoinder which was met with resistance by most fans who felt hard done.<\/p>\n

When the night eventually came, the critics\u2019 fears seem to be materialising from the jump.<\/p>\n

A delay in stage set-up and a snail-paced attendance at the La Palm Royal Beach Hotel had impacted the event which had been advertised to take off at 6 PM.<\/p>\n

\"Sarkodie,<\/figure>\n

The opening act performed at midnight after which the headliner himself took over affairs at almost 1 am.<\/p>\n

He never looked back from there, though he apologized for the hiccups that had culminated in the late start.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m so sorry I took forever. We had a few unforeseen circumstances that were beyond my power,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

His stage presence seemed to be enough compensation for the lapses experienced earlier on as the fans jammed to the musician\u2019s songs.<\/p>\n

He also welcomed collaborators Sarkodie, Joeboy, Gyakie, Omah Lay, La Meme Gang, Camidoh and Joey B.<\/p>\n

There were also some surprise acts which sent the fans into a frenzy including R2Bees, NSG, Mr Eazi, Kwamz of \u2018Kwamz & Flava\u2019 fame, AV, Quamina MP and Smallgod.<\/p>\n

\"Sarkodie,<\/figure>\n

The evening saw more apologies including one done by Smallgod on behalf of the Nungua-raised artiste for the Accra Sports Stadium incident.<\/p>\n

\u201cI apologise for my children, Wizkid, King Promise, R2bees. We are sorry, forgive us. And also thank you for coming to support us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Smallgod was not the only one to solicit forgiveness for the December 10 no-show.<\/p>\n

He revealed an advice King Promise failed to heed which he believes could have lessened the ensuing backlash.<\/p>\n
