When the NewsDay crew arrived at the venue, the supporting act David Hondoyedzomba was still on stage and a few revellers were protesting.
“I am very disappointed they are charging $5 entrance fee, which for me is a lot of money. I was expecting that Sulu would be on stage early,” Mary Mawoneke said.
But, Sulu’s publicist Joe Nyamungoma said the musician performed well on time.
“We had a supporting act who also needs exposure and played until 10:30pm.
“The band did a routine sound check for 30 minutes before Sulu joined them at 11:00pm,” Nyamungoma said.
“It is actually normal anywhere you go.”

However, for those that had waited patiently for the musician’s performance, it proved to be an experience as the musician belted out yesteryear hits like Gamba, Kwaziwai and Samatenga among others leaving revellers spellbound.
