Dr Colbert Mukwevho reinforced his status as one of Limpopo’s greatest musical icons with two performances over the weekend, including a standout appearance at the Big Top Arena at Carnival City, where he once again demonstrated why he remains one of South Africa’s most respected performers.
His ability to command two venues with high energy has sparked admiration among supporters, with some calling for a street in Thohoyandou to be named after him or for a statue to be erected in recognition of his contribution to music and culture. Those calls reflect the deep appreciation many have for his long career and lasting influence.
For more than three decades, Mukwevho has used his music to educate, inspire and entertain generations of listeners. His consistency, resilience and commanding stage presence have cemented his place among the country’s musical greats.
