South African singer Tyla has cancelled her much-talked-about show that was slated to hold in Lagos on January 13, 2027. This was allegedly triggered by the call of many Nigerians to boycott the show following the constant attack on Nigerians and other Africans in South Africa.
The Xenophophia attacks has been ongoing for years in South Africa and Tyla has not said anything against the inhuman treatment Nigerians get in her country.
After several Nigerians noted that they would not attend her show in Lagos and called for its cancellation, the ‘Water’ hitmaker simply removed Nigeria from her tour list.
Many Nigerians have rejoiced over Tyla’s decision to cancel her show in the country and they shared their thoughts on social media.
