The first edition of the Tomorrow's leaders festival charity event organised by Grammy winning band Morgan Heritage went down last night at the Kasarani stadium Nairobi.

The festival saw performances from several artists including Kenyan artists Wyre, Jua Cali, Naiboi and Femi One. Jose Chameleone represented Uganda, Stonebwoy (Ghana), Stanley Enow(Cameroon), Alaine ( Jamaica) together with Morgan Heritage who were the last to perform.

However, two of the main acts who were expected to perform at the show, Diamond Platnumz and Yemi Alade did not show up raising alot of concern and noise from the fans. At one time the revellers kept on shouting Diamond's name chanting 'We want Simba',.

While on stage performing, one of the Morgan Heritage brothers Peetah Morgan explained to the crowd why Diamond did not show up.

"Apologies from Simba, he is not feeling well but he is here in Nairobi. When a man is sick you got to show sympathy, if you love simba say rasta" he said.

In an interview with Ommy Dallah, Diamond's manager Salaam Mendez revealed that they will be addressing the issue today through Diamond's social media pages.

"Diamond will address the issue tomorrow through his social media, so don't worry" said Salaam.

In another interview, Gramps Morgan insinuated that Yemi Alade was not feeling well too.

"The weather here is not good.Diamond is from a very busy tour. Yemi got sick".

Earlier on Kenyan artists were seen gathered in one place at the backstage looking disturbed and did not want to perform. It turned out the artists were demanding for their pay before taking to the stage, it took the intervention of one of the ladies from the organisers to convince them to perform promising that they will be sorted.

The festival is also expected to take place again next year.

"Someone asked me why we chose Kenya and I asked him why not Kenya. Expect big things next year" Gramps Morgan told the crowd
