Zimbabwe’s celebrated Musicians, Sandra Ndebele, Jah Prayzah, Forgiven Ndlovu and Vengai ‘Vekann’ kanhema have come out guns blazing on the on-going Xenophobia attacks on Zimbabweans plying their business in South Africa.
The Artistes are calling for the cancellation of all gigs lined up by SA Musicians this weekend, around the country, to allow the grieving atmosphere that has gripped the Zimbabweans, caused by South Africans to cool down.
Ndebele posted on her Facebook page today calling all Zimbabweans and music lovers to boycott all lined up musical shows by South African singers in protest against Zimbabweans who are being killed and maimed in the neighbouring country.
“We cannot party and dance to these South African Artists that are coming (Big Nuzz , Diliza, Nyovest) when South Africans are killing our brothers…….WE ARE NOT GOING TO ATTEND THEIR SHOWS,” said Sandra on her post.
South African musicians have lined up live shows in Bulawayo and Harare, during the difficult time, when Zimbabweans are being butchered and burnt alive in their country.
Vengai Kanhema another Zimbabwean Celebrated Musician also took a swipe at the show arrangements and their promoters. “This is the wrong time to enjoy and party while our brothers and sisters are in hell fire. If the South African Musicians are coming to console us, then the shows must be free and that can be acceptable. Musicians both from SA and Zimbabwe must come together and sing out xenophobia from the perpetrators so that they can be informed. But for now let’s not allow any SA Musician to perform in our country because we are moaning.
This is also the time that Presidents Zuma and Mugabe must sit down and dialogue about this issue that is affecting their people. As they both helped each other’s independence,” said Vekann.
His sentiments were also echoed by those of Jah Prayzah’s Manager and spokesperson Filda Muchabaiwa. “What will we be partying for when our relatives are dying painful deaths back in SA? Are the artistes coming to celebrate the deaths and suffering of our fellow sisters and brothers who are experiencing hell on this earth? Let them be warned that if they dare stage any shows this week, trouble will attend them,” warned a visibly angry Filda.
Another Bulawayo Artiste Forgiven Ndlovu also said that they have already organised a demo to be staged at the venue where SA singers are booked for performance this weekend. “Why are they coming to get money from Zimbabwe, when they don’t want us to get money from SA? They must demonstrate in the streets of SA starting from today, lobbying against the attacks and also informing their fellow countrymen to stop the brutality otherwise we are ready for the war against them here,” said Ndlovu.

Foreigners are being killed in SA, but then as usual it becomes the Shona-Ndebele nonsense on this forum. How do Gukurahundi and xenophobia in SA link up? The murder of Nigerians, Somalis, Malawians, Mozambicans, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, etc were started by Mugabe and ZANU PF? Hey madoda ziyasebenza khanjani izinqondo!

Gogosesikhona u r blind to the truth. The killings in South Africa r not targetting Shonas only even your own Ndebeles are included although most of u claim to be South Africans. Lets deal with the issue with an open mind and say what is happening is not acceptable by any form of yardstick. Its only acceptable in hell.

This was started by none other than mugabe and his zanu, when they killed unarmed ndebele civilians , some thrown in mine shafts alive. History tends to repeat itself.
