Meanwhile, following the social media uproar, Oscar Mbo expressed his apologies to the comment section of Kharishma’s post

“Apologies to you my sister,” he wrote.

He blamed the promoter of the event for his actions.

“The communication we had with the promoter of the event and the change of times was clearly not communicated.

“We were booked for three events and they were all done by one promoter, they changed times on one show and it affected all three shows.”

As he conveyed his sincere apology, he expressed that he would never undermine any of his industry colleagues.

“What happened on stage is something I didn’t condone and I personally called my team out, I would never do such.

“I parked when you started and stayed in the car, I was personally called by the team when the stage manager said it’s my time to get onto stage, I never leave the car when it’s not my time.”

“Apologies for how the whole thing was handled but I got the full story when we left & by then the damage was done. I would never undermine any artist, we are all colleagues at the end of the day regardless of anything. Apologies 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🌻,” he concluded his apology post.
