The 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA) Artiste of the Year, King Promise, joined Rwanda’s Armée Patriotique Rwandaise (APR) basketball team to celebrate their victory over Nairobi City Thunder in the Basketball Africa League.
Diarra delivered an outstanding performance on Saturday, May 17, 2025, leading APR, the hosts of the 2025 Nile Conference, to a commanding 92–63 win over the debuting Nairobi City Thunder.
Nairobi City Thunder held a brief lead (19–14) early in the first quarter. However, APR tightened their defense in the second quarter, forcing the Thunder into seven turnovers and sealing their dominance for the remainder of the game.
After the match, the Ghanaian musician joined the players in the locker room to sing some of his hit songs and dance with them in celebration.
King Promise performed one of his most popular tracks, “Terminator,” as the players danced and raised their hands in excitement.
The players, visibly thrilled to be joined by the renowned musician, gave him a warm round of applause as he exited the dressing room.
King Promise was recently crowned the 2025 TGMA Artiste of the Year, a prestigious accolade he had narrowly missed in previous years.
APR will next face South African champions MBB on May 18, 2025, while Nairobi City Thunder will take on Al Ahli Tripoli.
