What began as a rumour in the show-biz circle in the UK has now been confirmed. Chief  (Dr) Morocco Emeka Maduka, the King of Highlife music in Igboland and the Egwu Ekpili ‘Evangelist’ will be performing live in London and Manchester on November 5 and 6 2016 respectively.

The ‘Ekpili Music Exponent’, is coming to the UK with his  ‘Ekpili Crusade’ to preach love to the world. As we all know, love and humility are the cornerstone of Chief Morocco’s music and what a better time to be in diverse cities like London and Manchester, the Principal  Promoter Eddy Isebor enthusiastically said.

More important is that the ‘crusade’ is coming at a time when Morocco’s numerous fans especially in Europe thought that the ‘Ekpili Evangelist’ has retired from stage performance as they have not seen much of him in the public.

The London ‘crusade’ will change all that as Chief Morocco will be performing live and direct to his fans. Chief Morocco will literally set London aglow with his Ekpili Music, said the Press Statement.
