After musch persuasion from a mutual friends, Oman Rafiki finally accepted Vivian to go and perform in South Africa.
But a few days to event D-day, Oman Rafiki disclosed that if the event organisers couldn’t avail him with a ticket to travel with Vivian, the singer had to mull about pulling out of the event, and if she defied his orders, that was the end of her career with the label.

Since they were operating on a gentleman’s agreement at the time, Oman Rafiki wanted her to sign an agreement when she returned from South Africa, which marked the beginning of the disputes between the pair.
After reading the contract, she found the stipulations difficult to understand, therefore she refused to sign it, which marked end of her journey with Route Entertainment.
