Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie has embarked on a promotional tour across selected African countries ahead of his highly anticipated Rapperholic concert at London’s O2 Arena in March 2027.

The tour, dubbed #TheAfricanDiaries, began on Monday, November 2, 2026, following the successful staging of Rapperholic 26 at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi on October 24, 2026, where Sarkodie says more than 55,000 fans turned up.

Sarkodie announced that he would visit Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania and Nigeria, not to perform, but to visit and connect with fans across the continent.

He arrived in Nairobi, Kenya, on November 4, 2026, marking the beginning of the African leg of the build-up to the Rapperholic UK concert.

While in Kenya, Sarkodie met fellow rapper Khaligraph Jones and paid a courtesy call on Mr Paul Evans Aidoo, Ghana’s High Commissioner to Kenya. He also undertook a series of radio promotional activities.

As part of the African Diaries tour, Sarkodie is also expected to visit Tanzania, Ivory Coast and Nigeria, among other countries.

The tour comes as more than 75 per cent of tickets for his Rapperholic UK concert at The O2 Arena on Saturday, March 6, 2027, have already been sold. The show falls on Ghana’s 70th Independence Day anniversary weekend.

Sarkodie did not announce specific cities, how long he would stay in each country, or whether there would be any public appearances along the way.
