EL jazz festival postponed

Popular jazz festival Buyel'ekhaya has been postponed to December 22 following news of Nelson Mandela's death.

Organiser of the show, Hlubi Mazwai, said they would not be able to party up a storm while the nation was mourning the death of an international icon. "This is a difficult time for everyone. I'm sure even the artists won't be able to perform while Madiba hasn't even been buried," she said. Mazwai said people should not worry as the festival would still go on once the father of the nation had been laid to rest.
