The event, originally originally scheduled for Petit Stade<\/span>, was moved to Gikondo<\/span> due to a national conference expected tomorrow at the former venue.<\/p>\n

Chief organiser<\/span> Etienne Kalisa<\/span> asked fans to turn in big numbers since the new Gikondo<\/span> venue is more sizable. Among artists nominated include such luminaries that include Urban Boys, Miss Jojo<\/span> and Dream Boys.<\/p>\n

Currently organisers<\/span> are in talks with various transport companies to facilitate movement of fans throughout the concert. <\/p>\n
