Kwabena Kwabena, known for hit songs and a long career in the music industry, said he started the annual Valentine’s Day concert tradition years ago as a way to bring fans together around entertainment and celebration of love. He said the idea grew into one of the most anticipated events on the Valentine’s Day entertainment calendar in Ghana, with music lovers looking forward to it each year.

This year, however, the event attracted controversy when some fans and commentators claimed the concert did not go as planned and suggested that the veteran artist might have intentionally undermined the show. Kwabena Kwabena strongly denied those allegations, saying there was no sabotage and that logistical challenges beyond his control affected certain aspects of the programme.

In his comments, the singer emphasised that he is focused on entertaining his fans and that he has no interest in harming the reputation of the Valentine’s Day concert tradition. He asked critics to recognise his long contribution to Ghanaian music and the positive impact of the event over the years.

Some event organisers and industry figures have also defended Kwabena Kwabena, noting that large shows often face unexpected issues and that these should not be taken as evidence of ill intent.

As fans continue to discuss the matter online, the musician has urged everyone to focus on the spirit of celebration and to look forward to future concerts with appreciation rather than controversy.
