Harare(ZimEye)-Jamaican reggae artist Antony Moses Davis popularly known as Beenie Man has ruled out investing in Zimbabwe.
The renowned singer told reporters in Harare after his weekend show that he had no intentions of investing in Zimbabwe, contrary to what has been speculated on online websites.
The Zimbabwe Tourism Authority has been inviting such celebrities and persuading them to invest in the country. One such an international artist is Sizzla Kalonji who has since relocated to Zimbabwe.
Beenie Man, although not invited by ZTA to perform in the country said he was not interested in staying in Zimbabwe, castigating his fellow countryman Sizzla as a person who ‘has nothing to do’.
The 34 year old Jamaican (Sizzla), reportedly received a large farm in Chegutu as part of his payment for playing at Mugabe’s bash early this year and he intends to set it up as a youth development centre.
Reports say he is wanted for gun crimes in his own country, Jamaica.
“I have eight children back home in Jamaica a wife and my mother. I cannot establish a studio here in Zimbabwe.
“I will come and perform if invited but not to set a studio here,” he told journalists, after his weekend show. (ZimEye, Zimbabwe)
