Back in the days just after that Werrason signed with Primus, he went to give his first Primus-concert in Kikwit, coming freshly from Europe with his band after a 6 month-long tour. After having performed there, the press claimed that more than 700.000 people came over to watch his concert. Is that true or did they just to boost the event ? Because back in 2005, Kikwit didn't had more than 250.000 people over there.

Temoignage wasn’t finished yet. Sec Bidens wasn’t happy the way Bonbon Kojack and co were singing. They went to finish Temoinage in november 2005, re-recording the album in live format and adding new animations like Werra Champion, Ilo-Zapata, Kisanola, Beta Masasi, etc.

What about those JB & Werra record attendence at Stade des Martyrs, were it really 250.000 spectators ? Or was it just around the 120.000-150.000 ? Because Stade des Martyrs only has a capacity of 80.000 for matches, 120.000 coming when you have matches like Vita vs Imana (which is possible, because the stadium doesn't have seats) and in most concerts of stadiums when they add the lawn of the stadium for specators, it mostly adds only 1/4 of places of the stadiums capacity.
