Congolese Rhumba Musician Koffi Olomide says the Zambia Police Service has cleared him of allegations that he assaulted photographer Jean Ndayisenga in December 2012.

Addressing the media in Lusaka on Thursday morning, Koffi says he is in possession of a letter from the Zambia Police Service which has cleared him of any wrong doing.

Asked why he offered an apology to the nation in a TV advert for his shows, the musician says his promoters asked him to apologize even if he did not assault Mr. Ndayisenga.

Koffi has alleged that the photographer was in love with Congolese female musician Cindy Le couer who he kept following even at the backstage.

On Wednesday, Inspector General of Police Stella Libongani says Koffi will by the end of today know his fate.

The Police Chief says police would decide whether to re-open an assault case against the Congolese Musician.

The complainant, Freelance Photojournalist Jean Ndayisenga claims, he was not consulted when police closed the docket and subsequently wrote to Inspector General of Police Stella Libongani to re-consider the matter.

Koffi, who is in the country with a 20 man crew, is expected to have two shows in Lusaka over the long weekend.

    • It does not surprise me that a supporter of PF/Sata like robin does not have morals. Don’t you know that Fornication is a Sin??

  1. Lucky you Kofi. It couldnt have been the same if you were just some struggling chibuka tavern singer from Bauleni. All animals are equal but some are more equal than others.

    • Micheal Sata did. He was kicking with koffi at Mugabe’s daughter’s wedding. We all saw those pictures right here on Lusaka times.

  2. How come your so called xristian nation invited a devil worshipper to come and spoil your kids, tsk,tsk

  3. KOFFI IS WORTH 1.7 BILLION US DOLLARS HE IS 143 TIMES RICHER THAN SATA & 6 TIMES RICHER THAN HH NOT KNOWING HOW MUCH RICHER THAN THAT PHOTOGRAPHER

    • stop cooking figures,koffi might be 4th richest african musician and no african musician is even worth a billion mind you.infact he is mince to HH stop dreaming

  4. I will email BOKO HARAM to come attend your “music show” perhaps you will get our NO clearer and you will never step your foot on Zambian soil ever again since FIBUJU ulafilishamo shetani iwe.

  5. This should not come as a surprise. Koffi was last seen breaking bread with Michael Sata at Mugabe’s daughter’s wedding. Remember he was the guest entertainer! No case to answer, my derrière!

  6. So he was forced to apologise? And of all the people his promoter because he wants to make money. Since when did the Police become judge and jury? Where is the separation of powers between courts and the police?

  7. He is guilty, how do you apologise for a crime you did not commit? Imwe Zambians, why do you like naked bodies of dirty women, boycott his shows. When he assaults you, that is when you will realise that he is a stu.pid bleached face man. Atase, bleaching your skin ci Koffi iwe, but we know that everything else is pitch black.

  8. WELCOME BACK TO YOUR SECOND HOME, FOFFI. PLEASE, AS LONG AS YOU ARE CLEARED BY POLICE FEEL FREE TO BELONG TO ZAMBIA AND ENJOY YOUR STAY. IF THE CLEARANCE WAS WRONG, IT ISN’T YOUR FAULT. IT IS THE FAULTY OF THE AUTHORITIES THAT BE.

    AND THANKS TO YOUR COUNTRY FOR GIVING ZAMBIA THE PEDICLE ROAD WHICH WILL OPEN UP LUAPULA PROVINCE TO THE REST OF ZAMBIA AND THE WORLD. STAY COOL AND ENTERTAINMENT THE PEOPLE IN ZAMBIA WHO LISTEN TO RUBBISH UMO BWACELA.

  9. That is Zambia for you with money you can put the police and the judges in your back pocket. No wonder any Jim and jack foreigner who comes to Zambia can physically abuse local people with impunity knowing he will pay his way out. This country is really a shit hole!
