Harmony4Haiti concert meant to celebrate Kenyan police in Haiti postponed

PS Korir, in a statement issued on Tuesday, August 20, 2024, said that the concert that was to be held in partnership with the Africa4Haiti Initiative on August 24, 2024, had been postponed to September 8, 2024.

This, the PS said, was to allow for further awareness creation and expand participation of artists from different jurisdictions.

“Harmony4Haiti Concert postponed to 8 September 2024 to allow for further awareness creation and expand participation of artists from different jurisdictions,” PS Korir said.

According to PS Korir, the meeting with Khaligraph Jones sought to create an understanding of the Kenyan police involvement in the general peacekeeping mission to create awareness.

“The arts and culture play c******l unifying roles in our society and are key pillars for integration and stability.

The concert will feature creatives from Kenya, Haiti, and Romania, among other countries in the Caribbean, and will provide an avenue for historical and cultural exchange.

“The event is envisioned to be more than just a celebration; it is a demonstration of our solidarity with the p****e of Haiti and our commitment to their progress and prosperity,” PS Korir said.

Some of the activities during the concert will include musical performances from Kenyan and Haitian artists, cultural exhibitions, panel discussions, workshops, and seminars.

The first contingent of police officers flew to Haiti in June 2024, marking the beginning of a United Nations-backed mission to combat powerful a***d gangs that have wreaked turmoil in the Caribbean country.
