Music legend miriam Makeba dies
Miriam Makeba, the ``Mama Africa'' whose sultry voice gave South Africans hope when the country was gripped by apartheid, died early Monday of a heart attack after collapsing on stage in Italy.
A Miriam Makeba tribute concert, which was supposed to take place at the Union Buildings in Pretoria on Saturday, has been cancelled, organiser Morris Roda said on Friday.
