without Bill Clinton who was suspended and the return of Adjani who was deported from Europe

Why was Bill Clinton suspended? I wonder if this contributed to the fallout between Bill Clinton and Werrason.

I don't know why. But according the press it was because of disciplinary reasons. It was first 1 month, but it got reduced to two because of Bill's absence leaving a big void and the public not feeling the sebene anymore. It was a period with alot of suspensions. Ali Mbonda, Heritier, Jus d'Ete Mulopwe and Celeo would get suspended later on. If I remember well, Maison Mere once performed in 2003 without Celeo and Bill who were both suspended. A guy from the reserve-team doing the animation along with Goldberg. There was a rehearsal video at La Zamba Playa of that period on 2mukwata's channel, but it isn't on youtube anymore. Celeo was suspended because of assaulting a dancer of Academia.
Bill's suspension didn't lead to the fall out with Werrason. Bill Clinton wasn't happy with Werrason anymore since the Double Zenith days, but didn't saw it as a reason to leave Maison Mere. He saw himself staying for life with Werrason like Djuna Mumbafu with Pepe Kalle and Nono's longstay in Zaiko. But Ferre influenced him to leave. Even when they planned to leave in London, but was difficult for Bill. He had still idea's to return back to Maison Mere and it almost happened through Werra's wife, but when he signed with Skol when being in Paris with Les Marquis he changed his mind.
