Musician ST met the general manager of the Independence Stadium Ebou Faye on Monday as a bitter row came to a dramatic end.
ST and Ebou Faye have been at war over the past days over the musician’s plan to hold his album launch there this coming Saturday.
“We are pleased to announce that the Dinding Mansa Album launching will proceed on February 6th, 2021 as planned. The challenge we had in relation to the venue – the Independence Stadium, has been resolved amicably following candid and fruitful engagements with relevant stakeholders,” ST’s management said in a statement Monday afternoon.
The statement added: “We would like to express sincere thanks and appreciation to the Management of the Stadium, the Ministry of Youths and Sports, and the entire Gambia government for their cooperation and support.
“Special thanks to the fans, well-wishers, fellow artists of ST for their solidarity throughout this difficult period. It means a lot and is hugely appreciated by ST and his management.
“The massive public support is demonstrative of the fact that ST is truly a Gambian pride and man of the people – a love affair that stems from years of fidelity to the values of excellence, community service, and selflessness.
“It goes without saying that part of the proceeds from the album launching and all other shows are plowed back into our communities through the ST Foundation for Community Development and other private endeavors.”
