Amapiano artist Kelvin Momo has expressed regret to his fans and event organisers after missing a planned performance at the Mamalisa event in Polokwane.<\/p>\n

The musician released a statement on social media explaining that his plans were hindered by unexpected fuel shortages that affected travel arrangements.<\/p>\n

The statement noted that Kelvin Momo and his team tried multiple times to obtain diesel prior to the event, but were unable to do so.<\/p>\n

\u201cDear Fans and Stakeholders, we would like to extend our heartfelt apologies to all stakeholders, fans, and everyone who was looking forward to seeing Kelvin Momo perform at the Mamalisa event in Polokwane,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n

The communication elaborated on the attempts made to resolve the situation, highlighting that the team went to various petrol stations in search of fuel but were ultimately forced to turn back.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, Kelvin Momo was unable to attend due to unforeseen fuel shortages. Despite efforts by him and his team who visited multiple petrol stations, they were unable to secure diesel in time, and ultimately had to make the difficult decision to return home.\u201d<\/p>\n

The event organisers reiterated the apology in a follow-up caption, stating, \u201cWe sincerely apologize for Kelvin Momo\u2019s absence last night. Unforeseen fuel shortages prevented him from attending the event. We appreciate your understanding and support as we work on a new date.\u201d<\/p>\n

The statement acknowledged the disappointment felt by fans, assuring them that efforts are being made to reschedule the performance.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe sincerely understand the disappointment and inconvenience this may have caused to fans and the Mamalisa stakeholders. Please be assured that both Kelvin Momo and the Mamalisa team are committed to finding a suitable new date that works for all parties.\u201d<\/p>\n

The artist expressed gratitude to his supporters for their patience, hoping to compensate for the missed opportunity soon.<\/p>\n
