Terence Creative Dismisses Claims Koffi Olomide Snobbed Him: "Mulitaka Anipige Busu?"

Comedian Terence Creative has rubbished claims that he was snobbed by Congolese Rumba star Koffi Olomide when he went to welcome him at the airport.

Terence said he was honoured to meet his musical idol and share a brief moment with him.

Did Koffi Olomide snob Terence?

Terence, who often impersonates Koffi in his Papa Fred character, was among the local celebrities who went to receive the legendary singer at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport on Wednesday, December 6.

Koffi arrived in Kenya for his peace concert scheduled for Saturday, December 9, at the ASK Dome Showground.

In a video that went viral on social media, Terence was seen greeting Koffi and expressing his admiration for him.

However, some netizens felt that Koffi was not interested in talking to Terence and that he ignored him.

They accused the comedian of trying to force a friendship with the Rumba icon.

Terence, however, dismissed the claims and said he was happy with the encounter.

He said he did not expect Koffi to have a long conversation with him or hug him.

He said he was just fulfilling his dream of meeting his idol and showing him some love.

“Just going there and greeting Koffi was enough for me. Did they expect him to kiss me?” Terence wondered in an interview with SPM Buzz.

He added:

“If they think getting a chance to meet Koffi is easy then let them go and try.

Terence also said he was not bothered by the negative comments and that he was looking forward to attending Koffi’s concerts. He said he was a loyal fan of Koffi’s music and style and that he would continue to support him.

“I’ve been a big fan of Le Grand Mopao since I was young. His music and fashion inspire me a lot. I’m excited to see him perform live and maybe even share the stage with him,” Terence said.
