Congolese musician Koffi Olomide has been barred from performing in South Africa following an uproar by women rights groups.

The Centre for the Study of Violence and Reconciliation (CSVR) and other women entities in South Africa successfully petitioned the government to prohibit Olomide from setting foot in the country.
