In a statement published on Monday, organisers of the festival said they had observed various comments on social media calling for Khumalo to not perform at the event scheduled to take place on 12 August at the Emmarentia Dam, Johannesburg. The show will feature Kabza De Small and Amanda Black and Pabi Cooper and Vusi Nova among others.
"However, in the interest of safeguarding our festival, management has taken the decision to relieve Ms Khumalo of her obligations to perform at our festival this year to afford her and her team the time they require to deal with the issues emanating from the current court proceedings," the statement continued.Khumalo's name has recently featured prominently in the ongoing murder trial of her ex-boyfriend and Orlando Pirates former goalkeeper, Senzo Meyiwa.
He said according to his records, Ntuli first called Khumalo on August 2, 2014 at 22.40 and that call lasted 110 seconds. Ntuli’s phone again called Khumalo’s phone on October 15.
