South African Amapiano duo Mapara A Jazz, best known for their 2020 hit “John Vuli Gate,” have reportedly been kidnapped in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, according to a distress post shared on their official Facebook page.


The musicians are said to have left South Africa on Friday, 24 October 2025, for a scheduled performance in Ethiopia. Approximately 10 to 12 hours ago, a concerning post appeared on their Facebook account, reading:

Authorities have not yet confirmed the incident, but screenshots of the post have since circulated widely on social media, prompting calls for urgent intervention from South African officials.
