Is he at it again! Jovi releases a statement on why he wouldn't be attending the 2016 Kora Awards
Statement on Jovi Attendance for the 2016 Kora Awards
March 11, 2016
We would like to announce to our fans that Jovi will not be attending the 2016 Kora Awards. We are very appreciative of the professional and cordial communication we have had with the Kora Awards committee since August 2014, when they first expressed interest in Jovi. While we have had a great relationship with the committee and organizers, we have still not received any information on Jovi’s travel arrangements, even though we have requested details since January 2016. It is not feasible for us to continue to put other projects and engagements on hold, while we wait for information. We have done our best to promote the awards show, created material to promote his nomination, discussed it in interviews, and heavily encouraged our fans to vote. With less than one week left before Jovi is scheduled to leave, we have had no response to get information available for us to plan our itinerary, and we prefer not to scramble at the last minute to make arrangements. We SINCERELY appreciate all of the fans who have voted for Jovi’s Mboko God to win Best Album. We would not have reached this far without your support! Jovi is proud to represent Cameroon for the Kora Awards, and we wish all the nominees and the Kora Awards committee the best of luck! Thank you to all the fans that have spent funds texting, voted online, and shared the nomination. We hope to work again with the Kora Awards in the future.
Sincerely,
New Bell Music.Just history repeating itself...

Kumba Population Feasts On Poisoned Fish
Men, women and children alike could be seen picking dead fish from the banks of the shallow river. Despite the pungent smell emanating from the dead fish, the population keeps streaming to the river to pick dead fish. The fish began floating on the river on February 22, quickly drawing a crowd to the scene of free fish.
Women on their way to the farm or businesses stopped along the river to get the free fish. Meanwhile, children stopped by on February 23, afternoon, to search for the dead fish. Some unknown persons reportedly poured a toxic chemical into the river to harvest fish, which they would sell to make fast cash.
However, police officers surfaced around the Metta Quarter Junction end of the river on Monday, and tried to disperse the population. Ever since the dead fish surfaced on the banks of Kumba Water, the river is emitting a repulsive stench. Local fishermen are noted for poisoning Kumba Water and then moving downstream to collect dead fish, which float to the surface. In some cases, these ‘fishermen’ sell their catch to the same people who supply the poison and convey the fish to urban markets.
In total disregard of the danger of consuming such fish, a local told The Post that once the fish is cooked or fried, the power of the toxic chemicals diminishes.The practice is common in tributaries and small streams during the dry season when water levels in streams and rivers are extremely low.
