Benga - whose real name is Adegbenga Adejumo - announced on Instagram: "I am absolutely gutted, my team and I have worked tirelessly on making this happen.
"But hey, I'm respecting the process and staying positive.
"I am truly sorry for all of the inconvenience and disappointment this causes, and I promise to keep you updated on what's happening.
"We have called on some of the OG's to step up in my place. (sic)"
