Limpopo Boy has been dropped from the inaugural Creators Assembly following the circulation of an intimate video involving the musician.
The Creators Assembly, in association with sponsor BBS Bank, announced in a statement that Limpopo Boy had been dropped and that a suitable replacement is being considered.
“The Creators Assembly remains committed to its mandate of contributing to the growth and development of Botswana’s creative economy, and BBS Bank is proud to support this important initiative.
“We thank our partners, creatives, stakeholders and attendees for their continued support and understanding,” reads the statement.
The Creators Assembly is set to take place on from 9 to 21 August at the Grand Aria Hotel and Conference Centre in Gaborone.
Limpopo Boy was dropped from the programme after he went viral because of an X-rated video of himself, exposing his private parts while with a woman who is allegedly married.
Through his management, the musician hailing from Limpopo, real name Robert Thoka, addressed the video.
Limpopo Boy’s management called the distribution of the video unauthorised and malicious.
The video appears to be taken in selfie mode, from the musician’s point of view, and he is with a woman, who he shows as naked before bringing the camera on him again and proceeding to take out his manhood and fondling it on camera.
