Fans and former counterparts of legendary Congolese musician Tabu Ley Rochereau will on Tuesday mark the 8th anniversary since his death. Just like last year, the occasion will largely be an online affair, with limited live shows due to Covid-19 restrictions.

Speaking to the Nation on Friday, US-based Congolese musician and producer Mekanisi Modero said he is liaising with some former members of Tabu Ley’s Afrisa International band and his family members to mark the occasion.
