Yonezawa Rumi and Hirajima Natsumi leaving AKB48

The news came really sudden, considering that Yonechan (Yonezawa Rumi) did arrive yesterday at Changi Airport.

It was announced on AKB48's Official Blog very early today (03:40am) about their decision to leave AKB48 and later in the morning on AKB48 Singapore's Official Facebook page that Yonechan would not be performing in the concert today.

Nacchan (Hirajima Natsumi):

私、平嶋夏海はこの度、ＡＫＢ４８・渡り廊下走り隊を
辞退させていただくこに決めました。
急な発表になってしまいすみません。

皆さんにご迷惑をおかけしてしまい、本当に申し訳ありません。
いつも応援してくださる皆さん、メンバー、スタッフさん
ＡＫＢ４８関係者の皆さん、本当にごめんなさい。

ＡＫＢ４８・渡り廊下走り隊を離れますが、これからは平嶋夏海として
いつかまた皆さんにお会いして応援していただけるよう頑張ります。
本当に申し訳ありませんでした。

I am terribly sorry for making all this trouble for everybody.
All of you who have always cheered for me, the members, and the staff members, everybody who is involved in AKB48, I am truly sorry.

I am very sorry.

No official reason were given for this sudden unpleasant news but it was said that their personal photos were leaked on their personal twitter, including some with guys in the photo. I wish them all the best, that it would clear up soon and that they would be back in AKB48.
