This Is What Fally Ipupa Did To Cleanse His Name When He Arrived In Kenya After Koffi Olomide Dented The Reputation of Congolese Musicians (Photos)
Fally Ipupa is in Kenya. And he’s keen not to be affected by the sins of his music godfather, Koffi Olomide.
For starters, Fally Ipupa started his career as a backup singer in Koffi Olomide’s band. He stayed under the guidance of Koffi for 7 years until he started to crawl on his own.
Fally jetted into the country last week for Coke Studio Season 4. The Congolese singer also had time to make an appearance at Laugh Festival last Friday night.
It was there that Fally talked to Kenyans about Koffi Olomide, he apologized on the behalf of the veteran Congolese singer who caused a storm in Kenya when he was caught on camera physically assaulting one of his female dancers at JKIA.
“Koffi is like my father, so I apologize to Kenya for what he did. I apologize to every Kenyan, every mother and every African. If your father does something wrong all you can do is apologize on his behalf. So from me to you, I am sorry.” Fally told the audience at Laugh Festival.
