Multi-award-winning amapiano superstar Kelvin Momo is fighting to prevent the liquidation of his entity, which is unable to refund and pay damages to a music promoter who booked him to perform in Australia but failed to show up.

Ace Events has filed papers in the Johannesburg High Court in which it is seeking the liquidation of the prolific music producer's company, Kelvin Momo Production, saying the DJ's stable has failed to pay it more than R2.8-million in refunds and damages as a result of his failure to perform at the shows Down Under last year.

In the court papers which we have seen, Ace Events director Million Mwenge Butshiire, stated that they entered into a contract with Kelvin Momo, real name Thato Kelvin Ledwaba, and his right-hand man Devon Peterson to organise what they called the 'Kelvin Momo Australian Tour 2024', where he would go and strut his stuff.

In terms of the agreement, Butshiire stated that Kelvin Momo was supposed to do a live performance in Melbourne on November 2 for 60 minutes and Perth, on November 03 last year, for the same duration.
