DJ Zinhle reportedly pulls out of Durban gig: “I’m not ready for Durban”

Mother of two Ntombezinhle Jiyane, professionally known as DJ Zinhle, is in no rush to visit the city of Durban anytime soon, the same city where her firstborn daughter Kairo Forbes’ father Kiernan ‘AKA’ Forbes, as well as celebrity chef and entrepreneur Tebello ‘Tibz’ Motsoane, were murdered.

The two men were gunned down outside the restaurant, Wish on Florida Road, which has since permanently closed down.

The DJ and businesswoman was set to perform at the Fact Durban Rocks event on 1 July for Durban July alongside artists such as Big Zulu, Sjava, DJ Tira, KO, Babes Wodumo and many others.

According to TimesLive, Zinhle said, “I cannot lie to you guys, I’m not ready for Durban. Emotionally, I’m not ready at all. I get a little anxious thinking about being in Durban. It’s going to be a while before I can be in Durban.”

Zinhle, who was born in KwaZulu-Natal, added, “I’m going through the most. Forget about seeing me in Durban. It’s not even that I am mad at Durban. It’s just hard. It’s only been three months since Kiernan died, so maybe with time. But I’m hoping I never change my mind.”

The abovementioned publication also stated that Zinhle is anxious about Father’s Day, which takes place on 18 June this year.

“What am I going to say to Kairo on Father’s Day?” she asked.
