As reported in the Sunday Rapport, the North West University in Potchefstroom has cancelled its plans by one of its residences to have singer and right-wing activist Steve Hofmeyr perform at one of its events.
The article went on to state that a concert planned by the Patria men's residence as part of its annual July festival, has been cancelled. It also reported that the University’s Director of Corporate Communications, Louis Jacobs, told them that Steve's image and utterances did not comply with the inclusive space the university wanted to build at its campuses.
Numerous festivals and big name brands such as Toyota and Multichoice, have cut ties with the Afrikaans singer as he continues to make racially divisive comments.
