Music enthusiasts in Europe will be treated to a series of concerts by Rwanda’s duo Charly na Nina, as well as oldies music icon Abdul Makanyaga, next month.

Their first concert is scheduled for May 5 in Belgium, where they will perform alongside DJ Princess Flor, a Rwandan DJ based in Belgium, and DJ Gigga.

From there, they will head to France, Switzerland and Sweden where they will stage more shows.

The tour is organised by Team Production, a Belgian company.

Nina, born Fatuma Umuhoza, expressed her excitement over tour and promised spectacular performances.

"It will be a big milestone for us,” she said.

This will be the first time the duo will be performing without their manager of five years Alex Muyoboke, since they parted ways last month.

Nina also revealed that they do not intend to hire a new manager any time soon until they finish the projects they have. 

"We have a wonderful team that is supporting us,” she said, adding: "Hiring a new manager requires time and effort and since we have a lot of projects that begin next week, we will not be hiring one until we accomplish the tasks we currently have in our hands.”

The talented duo honed their craft as backup singers on stages across the country, and their breakthrough came with the release of their breakthrough track Indoro in 2015, followed by several other hits including Owooma, Face to Face, Zahabu and Try Me that made the group a household name.
