No peace in this country yazi! If you were at the Macufe music festival in Bloemfontein yesterday, you witnessed the electrifying performance of our girl Makhadzi.
We all know she’s got the talent to set the stage on fire, and her fans were eagerly waiting for her to take them on a musical journey. But something went horribly wrong!
Oscar Mbo’s Shocking Move
Out of nowhere, Makhadzi’s performance was abruptly cut short. According to the superstar herself, it was none other than Oscar Mbo who pushed her off the stage!
Just imagine the energy in the crowd when she mentioned that her USB was removed while she was about to finish her set. Taking to Facebook, she expressed her disappointment saying: “Bloemfontein Macufe, I am sorry to perform only 20 minutes. Why do such a thing when people pay their money to see us?” It’s clear she was hurt, and rightfully so!

Fans React
Trust South Africans with their favourites, better not touch them, wathinta abafazi…. you know where the danger is! The backlash was instant. Fans came out in numbers showing support for Makhadzi.
Many felt it was disrespectful of Oscar Mbo, especially since this seems to be a recurring pattern of behaviour. One fan tweeted, “Three people have complained about how Oscar Mbo treats other artists. This isn’t the first time!” It’s becoming a trend that needs to be addressed because artists deserve respect on stage.
Idrama engaka! So much drama. It’s unfortunate that such incidents happen within our industry. We should uplift each other instead of tearing each other down. Yazi nje, we hope Oscar Mbo learns from this so that we can enjoy powerful performances without drama in the future!
