Popular afrobeats star, Divine Ikubor, best known as Rema, was hosted by Rwandan President Paul Kagame at the presidential palace in Kigali on a Sunday.
Truth Live News gathered that Rema was in Kigali to participate in the 2023 Trace Music Awards.
Rema’s talent and artistry at the awards ceremony were celebrated as he clinched two prestigious awards: the Global African Artist of the Year and Song of the Year for his hit track ‘Calm Down.’
During his visit to the President, the music star in a video that went viral on Monday said, “Coming to Rwanda, it gives me that vibe of a place where I can rest and feel at home without having to travel overseas.
“A lot of time we just want to take that break, we just want to lay back… I feel like with here we can have serene energy, that vibe. And I feel like it’s even going to be a bigger thing when we [Africans] start uniting.
“I must say thank you so much, Mr President.”
