HARARE \u2013 Prominent DJ and event organizer, DJ Ollah, has publicly accused musician Silent Killer of fraud, alleging the artist received payment but failed to perform at a scheduled event last December, leading to a formal police report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The dispute centers around a Christmas Day event. In a detailed social media statement, DJ Ollah sought to clarify the sequence of events, asserting that Silent Killer was never originally billed for the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSilent Killer wasn\u2019t on my poster or part of the performers,\u201d stated Ollah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe called me a day before the show asking to be added on the list and I told him that I do not have money since my budget was strained. He insisted that he wanted to perform, \u2018tipei zviripo mdara basa torova\u2019, these were his words.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ollah claims that on December 23, he acquiesced and gave Silent Killer $500 in cash after the musician’s persistent requests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe promised to come and perform and I asked him several times and he promised to come.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The situation escalated on the day of the event. Ollah alleges that Silent Killer\u2019s associate, Lalo, requested fuel money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTheir former manager General Ovi sent him the money via Ecocash, upon receiving the money they switched off their phones till the next day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After unsuccessful attempts to contact the musician for a refund, Ollah took legal action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis led me to then file a report through the ZRP,\u201d he confirmed, adding that he had recorded all relevant conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI have everything that he said over the phone and in person on the record.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ollah also revealed this was not an isolated incident, alleging Silent Killer failed to honor a separate commitment to promoter Chipaz in Bulawayo on December 27 after receiving a $1,500 advance plus an additional $100 for fuel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cChipaz called me achitochemawo naye and I said, I\u2019m also looking for him,\u201d Ollah shared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The promoter concluded with a direct question to the public:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe question is, dai uriwe wakapa Munhu mari wausina kudaidza asi akukumbira ndiye kuti aridze waiita sei kana asina kuuya uye asina kukupa mari yako? Isn\u2019t this fraud?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Silent Killer has yet to issue a public response to the allegations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
