Afro Nation is an annual event celebrating Africans in the diaspora. The event is considered one of the biggest music concerts globally.

Last year, the organisers of Afro Nation canceled the first-ever concert in Nigeria — scheduled at Tafawa Balewa Square between December 19 and 20,

The organiser, however, did not provide details for the cancellation.

“It has become clear to us that it is currently not possible to deliver a show that is of the quality that Nigeria deserves in December 2023,” they wrote.
