Tems Cancels Rwanda Concert Amid East Congo Conflict

Tems has announced the cancellation of her upcoming concert in Rwanda, originally scheduled for March 2025, due to the ongoing conflict in East Congo.

The award-winning singer took to social media on Thursday, January 30, 2025, to apologize to her fans and explain her decision. She acknowledged that she was unaware of the conflict and Rwanda’s involvement when initially planning the event.

In her statement, the Grammy-winning artist expressed that she never intended to be insensitive to global issues and apologized if her concert announcement was perceived that way.

“So I recently promoted my show in Rwanda without realizing that there is ongoing conflict between Rwanda and Congo,” she wrote on X. “I never ever intend to be insensitive to real-world issues, and I sincerely apologize if this came across that way. I simply had no idea this was going on. My heart goes out to those affected. Conflict is no joke and I truly hope and pray for peace in this time.”

Tems’ decision to cancel the concert reflects her stance on global awareness and sensitivity to ongoing humanitarian crises.
