US Rapper Ludacris’ Trip To Nigeria Cancelled

Ludacris and Chaka Zulu

Fans might have to wait a little while longer to see US rapper Ludacris  as the Grammy Award winning artiste’s trip to Nigeria has been cancelled.

It was reported that the ATL rapper who co-runs his label Disturbing Tha Peace Records (DTP) with co-founder Chaka Zulu were to fly into Lagos to launch a TV reality show called  ‘The African Superstar’. A poster circulating around had suggested that Luda had teamed up with media outfits Konnect Afrika and Xtrem Media to host a ‘Disturbing Tha Peace Wit’ Luda’ gig on Sunday, July 31, 2011. A press conference was to hold the next day.

But on the D-day, a press statement was released and circulated via E-mail. It stated that the rapper had unveiled ‘African Superstar’ from Dar Es Salaam in Tanzania. It reads:

‘We sincereley apologize for the inconvenience, but word reaching us from Tanzania just confirmed that Ludacris’ trip to Lagos has been postponed, due to complications with the flight/air traffic flight plan from Dar Es Salaam. The ‘Disturbing Tha Peace Wit’ Luda’-tagged party in Lagos will no longer take place as scheduled. A formal press release follows shortly’.

Repeated efforts to reach the phone number that accompanied the mail prove abortive as it kept hanging up.
