SOUTH AFRICAN POLICE ARRESTS A MAN WHO CLAIMED TO BE A POPULAR MUSICIAN WHO DIED 2009, SPARKING A FRENZY AMONG SINGER'S FANS

South African police arrested a man on Monday after he claimed to be a popular musician who died in 2009, sparking a frenzy among the singer's fans.

Claiming that he is the late Zulu traditional music singer Khulekani Khumalo, also known as "Mgqumeni," the man arrived at the musician's home last week at Nqutu village in east South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal province.

News that the musician had returned spread like wildfire, prompting fans to descend on his home.

The man claimed that he had fallen victim to witchcraft but that he was rescued by ancestors. He did not die, he added, but was kept with zombies in a place he could not recall.

"The man is currently in custody pending a criminal investigation. Detectives have been questioning the man this morning and are conducting further investigation," said police spokesman Jay Naicker.

"The arrest follows developments yesterday when the man made his first public appearance at Nqutu," he added.

The man is to appear in court on tuesday. - AFP

VIOLENCE IN CROSS RIVER LEAVES 30 DEAD INCLUDING VILLAGE RULER AND 4 POLICEMEN

30 people were allegedly killed while four police officers and the village head of Ntan Obu Ukpe in Eniong in Odukpani local government area of Cross River State were beheaded in a communal clash between the Ntan Obu and the Ikpanya in Ibiono local government area of Akwa Ibom State on Tuesday. According to a local newspaper, about 2,000 indigenes of Ntan Obu were forced to take refuge in nearby communities of Odukpani council as many houses including churches were destroyed during the crisis. The Chairman of Odukpani Local council, Stephen Asuquo, while confirming the incident, told journalists that the people of Ntan Obu were attacked by the Ikpanaya neighbouring community of Akwa Ibom State, last week. "The remote cause, I can say, is the struggle by people from the Ikpanya for the land that belongs to the Ntan Obu.Ikpanya is in Ibiono council of Akwa Ibom State while Ntan Obu is in Odukpani council in Cross River State," he said.
