Kora Awards delayed due to Chis Brown's late arrival..!

US rapper Chris Brown arrived with singer Rihanna in the Ivory Coast city Abidjan today Sunday, when he was due to perform at an African music awards show.

Brown was billed as the star attraction at the glitzy Kora Awards, dubbed the "African Grammys", that recognise musical achievements from around the continent.

The event was initially set to take place Saturday, but was delayed at the last minute. Organiser Ernest Adjovi initially blamed the delay on Brown missing his flight, but later said heavy rains and other logistical hiccups were behind the postponement. 

Opinion: This is a big shame for African pride....the show had to go on regardless; as they were other huge African celebrities who should not have being waiting for some Chris Brown to show up....!!! Where is your respect to African people?.....Mr Brown!! Are we so meaningless to you?! ........Resting my case.
