UNLESS JLo agrees to postponement of the Gupta soiree, then the Guptas could lose the millions used to reserve the singer. Yesterday Gupta owned channel ANN7 yesterday announced that they are postponing the South African of the Year Awards which were to honour locals who have done well each year.  This was to be their third awards where names such as DJ Black Coffee, sports stars Caster Semenya and Wayde van Niekerk were some of the people the audiences of that channel could vote for.

Where are the white South Africans to welcome Caster? Where are they? Why are we so divided?,” he said. “The white contro...
