Fans of “Lonely at the Top” singer Asake have protested the N300,000 ticket price for his homecoming concert billed for Lagos.
The fans accused FlyTime Fest organisers of the concert of pricing them out of the gig meant to honour Asake whom they have supported while he struggled to find his musical feet. Many expressed disbelief and frustration, saying the cost is outrageous and out of reach.
Reactions on social media.
@Yemmmmie_: “So Nigerians are paying $200 just to stand and watch Asake, while people abroad get seats for under $100? Make it make sense. How do you overcharge the people who actually built the fanbase? It’s giving ‘exploit your own’ and everyone’s just supposed to smile about it?”
@_ayzo: “I really wanted to go for Asake’s show but 300k is too ridiculous.”
@_blondehoe: “Asake ticket prices are ridiculous. Not even Chris Brown, Summer Walker and Travis Scott were this expensive. I might need a Nigerian boyfriend to buy me a ticket soon.”
@richtosho: “Asake concert standing ticket is 300k, Rema 250k, Davido 250k, in a country of particular concern… but they will sell tickets in US for less than $100 ~150k and you might even see Chris Brown and Billie Eilish + 10 other artists… imagine?”
