Right royal damp squib for rapper’s Swazi no-show

 
 
Sapa-AFP, The Star, Johannesburg, 25 April 2011
 
MBABANE: US rapper Jadakiss gave a concert linked to the royal family early yesterday, performing in a nearly empty hall in Swaziland’s main city, Manzini following an opposition boycott call.
 
The event, a fundraiser for a charity bearing the name of the son of King Mswati III, Lindani, was supposed to start at 6pm on Saturday.
 
Jadakiss finally took to the stage around 1am yesterday, giving a performance to a small audience of under 500, including princes and princesses.
 
The banned Swaziland Youth Congress, which had called on young people to shun the event, hailed the poor turn-out as a success. – Sapa-AFP
