Singer Kelly Khumalo has been dropped from the Maseru Jazz Festival amid the ongoing Senzo Meyiwa murder trial. The festival, named ‘A Tribute To Women’, will take place on 24 September 2023 at Maseru Park in Mafikeng, North West. Khumalo, who was the former Bafana Bafana captain, was killed at her home on 26 October 2014.
Maseru Jazz Festival Management’s Decision
In an official statement, the Maseru Jazz Festival management addressed the situation, stating that they have taken note of the comments circulating on social media about Kelly Khumalo. The management emphasized that their primary concern is the success and integrity of the Jazz Festival. While they acknowledged that Khumalo is innocent until proven guilty, they decided to relieve her of the obligation to perform at the event.

Recently, Colonel Lambertus Steyn, a cellphone data analyst and State witness, testified at the Gauteng High Court in Pretoria. According to Steyn, one of the five men accused of killing Senzo Meyiwa, Fisokuhle Ntuli, made two phone calls to Kelly Khumalo on 2 August 2014 and 15 October 2014. The first call lasted close to two minutes, and the second one lasted one and a half minutes.
Fisokuhle Ntuli is a well-known hitman connected to six murders in KwaZulu-Natal. He was sentenced to six life terms and 39 years in January 2022. During cross-examination, Steyn clarified that the number he mentioned, which belonged to Ntuli, was not registered under his name in accordance with RICA (Regulation of Interception of Communications and Provision of Communication-Related Information Act).
