RWANDAN AFRO POP ARTISTE Platini P is set to entertain music lovers in a music festival which will take place in Sierra Leone, next month.

The annual event which is organised by Sierra Leonean entertainment guru and  music promoter known as Kabaka group multimedia Entertainment will feature big artistes from countries like Nigeria, Ghana, and Congo.

Platini P announced his performance at the fest on all his major social media platforms where he shared an e-flier announcing him a headlining act for the event.

"Rwanda’s number one performer is coming to Sierra Leone. Ready to present the blue yellow and green” reads his post.

The special gig comes after Platini signed a deal with a Nigerian company named One Percent International which is helping him to go global.

In an interview with The New Times, he described this performance as an opportunity to showcase Rwandan music in countries far from the great lakes region.

He said that this will be an introduction of Rwandan music in Sierra Leone, which will even open doors for other musicians from Rwanda to perform in the same country.

"This is a vast festival which brings together many artistes from different countries” he said.

Performing in a big festival, he said, means a lot not only to him, but the whole Rwandan music industry.

He added that getting an invitation from a country that you wouldn’t think knows your music means that Rwandan music is reaching its target slowly by slowly.

"I am not sure if I have a big fan base there, but I assure my fans that I will deliver the best of me,” he told The New Times.

He will perform alongside other big artistes from Nigeria, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Uganda and couple more Sierra Leone,

This performance which will take place on November 26-27 follows a media tour that Platini P had in Nigeria, where he visited over 10 radio stations in Abuja and Lagos.

Some of Platini’s hits which are expected to be performed at the fest include ‘Shumeleta’, ‘Atansiyo’ and ‘Veronica.’
