Kenyan music star Jaguar offered to clear an outstanding bill for Congolese maestro General Defao who was detained in a Mombasa hotel on Saturday.
In a statement Jaguar, sympathised with the singer saying that the unfortunate situation can happen to any artist hence his offer to pay the bill.
The 57-year-old Congolese has been detained at Rickseaside Villas in Nyali for failing to pay for his food and accommodation.
“Following the unfortunate circumstance of General Defao, who has failed to pay his bill at a Mombasa hotel apartment, I have offered to pay the amount since I am an artist like him and this can happen to anyone,” said Jaguar.
Defao was in Mombasa for an event last weekend.
According to the Rhumba musician, a club in Mombasa refused to settle the bill for four extra days he spent at the hotel.
He said explained that he had been requested to stay and perform on August 3 after another show on July 28. He, however, did not perform in the last event.
