By James Gwati-Local musicians are crossing to neighbouring South Africa for live musical shows after Harare has maintained its ban on live performances.

Some of the musicians who have crossed Limpopo to seek fortunes this Easter holiday include Killer-T and Freeman.

The two will this Easter hold joint performances in Joburg.

Government early week said it was maintaining a ban on live performances by musicians and other artists including churches during the Easter holiday.

The authorities cited a possible surge in COVID-19 cases if people are allowed to gather during the long weekend.
