There are growing calls on social media for ZimFest organisers to remove South African artists Scott Maphuma, DBN Gogo, and LeeMcKrazy from the festival’s upcoming line-up.
The calls come amid rising concerns over the treatment of Zimbabweans living in South Africa and ongoing debates surrounding xenophobia.
Some Zimbabwean social media users argue that the artists have remained silent on the challenges facing Zimbabwean communities and should use their influence to express solidarity with those affected.
The discussion has gained traction online, with critics questioning continued support for performers who, in their view, have not publicly addressed the situation.
Others have urged ZimFest promoters to consider giving more opportunities to local artists and performers from countries perceived to be supportive of Zimbabweans.
Neither the festival organisers nor the artists involved have issued public responses regarding the matter.
