Musician Zahara has approached her financial problems with a uniquely sporting solution.

Zahara said in an interview with the Daily Sun that she would not disappoint as she aimed to alleviate her problems:

“I want to approach Kaizer Chiefs to help me. I promise to do great. I just want to have a concert, not just for me but my fans and family too. I just want to sing my heart out. I can do a three-hour show. All I’m asking for is the sound equipment, stadium, and ambulances as well as other things.
"Should the team allow me this opportunity, I will tell my story from beginning to end and sing all the songs my friends enjoy. I'm specifically asking the club because I've been a fan since I was a young kid."

According to a report in The South African, Chiefs spokesperson Vina Maphosa said the club had heard her plea, and would respond by tomorrow after it held discussions.
