Management of Zenith have decided to cancel the show for security reasons. They are issuing refunds at points of ticket sales

so sad indeed. now the combatants have been legitimized they are going to become even more powerful.  

It does not make sense to cancell a big concert 3 days to go. Now combantantts have  more strength to disrupt more concerts in future.  

Well,it's only because Zenith is a prestigious venue which hosts many shows constantly, management didn't want to take the risk probably because of the direct threats they were receiving from idiots who call themselves combattants.
It's good to note that police in France have started arresting some of these criminals,here is one who was recently by the Anti terrorism unit of the French police

Security reasons or another dodgy promoter?

According to http://www.digitalcongo.net/article/96868
Mr Alain Claude had only 1000 euros to finance the show.
By all means, not enough to pay for a hall like Zenith.

that article by digital only repeats what journalists on the combattants side say
this language is not the way mister kingunza talks....he probably just copied and paste for the sake of spreading information
it is not credible

I also doubt the story by digitalcongo, there are too many people up against JB Mpiana and Alain Claude, people that really have no clue about democracy and I really feel Congo as a country will never go anywhere with so many people with the reasoning am seeing on the comments and a lot of them supporting terrorists who call themselves combattants who have no respect for humanity and human rights.

yeah a lot of people are happy and saying  "bcbg musicians will have cardiac arrests LOL" or insulting jb and his family and stuff like that
and president of france did not respect his promise,he probably does not give a damn about congo anyway...

I fear something will happen in kinshasa,and as usuall it will transformed as " jb sent guys to cause havoc to europe guys who come here" like they did with nsone

The end of congolese music. The french authorities have supported the ending of this precious music by cancelling.

its very sad especially for the musicians,i am certain they received money from hundred of people for mabanga during the concert,sold some of the thing they possess as they know with a succesful tour they can aim for bigger things,for journalists of national tv who are in paris now for nothing at the end of the day....
the other concert scheduled at zenith that day is also cancelled probably due to the threats of those guys even thought the other concert has nothing to do with congo...
and some of people say "jb we love you but ......ingeta",thats not loving somebody

The French authorities have nothing to do with it, they allowed the show, it's management of the venue that decided to cancel the show.

What's the meaning of ingeta anyway?

ingeta is a salutation in kikongo,but its has been transformed by them into a war cry

Congolese as a people are not tolerant. on very many occasions I would see Congolese musicians fight during their shows in clubs here in Nairobi and hardly can a show end without a bitter argument. That shows people who are not tolerant. am sorry for my friends in here but that I think is a challenge you guys have. Congolese would do anything to go to Europe then forget and start insulting their brothers and sisters back at home. Am so sad, now they have won but for how long will they continue living in Europe?
