While although many are excited for the Afrobeats festival others left some criticisms while questioning the legitimacy of the post saying:
“Watch half these artists not be there, & Wizkid isn’t going to show up until everyone is back in the TSA line.” said one users.
Another user wrote: ” Are sure about Wizkid, considering he just rescheduled his entire concert?” asked a fan.
“Are you sure this is going to happen, because y’all keep canceling the events I’m hesitant to even entertain this,” ask a fan.
General tickets go on sale starting Jan. 13 at 1 p.m. ET via USA.AfroNation.com. Register at the site to gain access to the Afro Nation presale.
