SUNGURA musician Franco “Slomo” Dhaka (pictured) of Extra
Kwazvose was reportedly deserted by his band members hours before his Mvurwi
show on Saturday night.
Slomo was scheduled to perform at Dendere Nightclub in
Mvurwi. He had already been paid $450 in advance by club proprietor Shingirai
Run’anga.
Run’anga expressed his disappointment as he told NewsDay
Life & Style that the musician lacked professionalism as he failed to
return the money after the show flopped.
“We are saddened by Slomo’s behaviour. He asked for ZWL$450
upfront and I gave him, only to tell me that his members had deserted him hours
before the show and people around Mvurwi had travelled for the show, only to be
disappointed. That is serious lack of professionalism,” Run’anga fumed.
“I subsequently told him to return my money. Unfortunately,
he managed to return only ZWL$150 while giving a lot of excuses.”
Contacted for comment, Slomo confirmed the incident, saying
he was having a gentlemen’s agreement with Run’anga so that he compensates him.
“Something went wrong, my guy. You know in the music
industry, some people lose focus in the last minute, but I am cool with
Run’anga. We are sorting our differences in a smart way (sic),” he said.
