[VIDEO] Lauryn Hill Apologizes To Nigerians For Missing Show With Lovely Facebook Performance

enthusiasts were disappointed on Friday night as US music star, Lauryn Hill, failed to show up for the much advertised May Day Live concert in Lagos.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the artiste was billed to perform alongside other Nigerian musicians like Flavour, Yemi Alade, Chidinma, Patoranking and DJ Jimmy Jatt at the Eko Hotel and Suites.
The show, which was organised by ‘May Day Live’, then took place without the American artiste as the advertised Nigerian artistes took to the stage in turns to entertain the audience.
Hill, however, posted a video on Facebook apologising for being able to make it down. In the video titled ‘A Message to Nigeria from Ms. Lauryn Hill’, she said, “Hello Lagos, we are very sorry for not being with you there tonight, we were at the airport for seven hours just to try to get to you.” She also did a mini-performance with her crew.

The organisers also released a statement promising to have the artiste in Nigeria on a new date.
The statement read, “Due to Ms Lauryn Hill’s flight issues, the organisers of May Day Live and Ms Lauryn Hill management have concluded to postpone the show. A new date will be communicated soon.
“All tickets bought will be used for the new concert date. Meanwhile, a party will still hold today at Eko Hotel, starting from 7pm. Feel free to come and party as no tickets are required.
