Yvonne Chaka is set to become the first female artist to headline the annual Vodafone Legends night when this year’s ceremony comes on in three week’s time.
The legendary South African performer has been revealed as the headliner of this year’s show, slated for the Banquet Hall at the State House on September 25.
The annual gala honours musical greats across the continent.
The legendary Yvonne thus chalks up another first in a career full of accomplishments, which include numerous continental and global awards spanning her 25 year career.
The Vodafone Legends night has in the past been seen performances by greats such as Hugh Masekela, Femi Kuti, Freddy Meiway, Gyedu Blay Ambulley and Amakye Dede. Chaka Chaka would be the first female icon to headline the event.
