Oliver Mtukudzi suffered heart failure and had to be
hospitalised in Harare. This is according
to organisers of the London Jazz Festival where Tuku was scheduled to perform.
“Sadly Oliver Mtukudzi suffered heart failure this week and
is in hospital in Harare. He is stable and recovering, but won’t be able to
take part in this concert. We all wish
Oliver a swift and complete recovery,” the fest advised in a statement on its

Khumalo, Selema Masekela and Masekela’s old touring band.
The gig went ahead on 18 November.
