NORTH WEST STILL READY TO HOST CASSPER NYOVEST According to the North West Department of Arts, Culture, Sports and Recreation, it's all systems go for the Mahikeng-born hip hop star Cassper Nyovest's world-famous Fill Up .
The event is scheduled for December 3 at the Mmabatho Stadium. This was confirmed by the star himself during a media conference in Mahikeng on 17 November, as well as North West Arts, Culture, Sports and Recreation (Acsr) Chief Director, Thabo Mabe.
It does not look like Cassper Nyovest has plans to postpone the event and make time to properly grieve his friend.

Despite Cassper's state of mind ahead of the concert, concerns were raised about the integrity of the stadium after it was vandalised in 2018.

We gladly wish to invite anyone who has a structural engineering report that declares Mmbatho Stadium unsafe to bring information forth.
North West Department of Arts, Culture, Sports and Recreation Cassper also confirmed that two different firms of structural engineers were assigned at two different times to assess the venue.
When I heard reports that the venue was not fit enough, I was unfazed, said Nyovest. Even before we sold the first tickets, we had commissioned a structural engineer to look at the safety aspects of the stadium. They gave it a thumbs up.
We even went for a second opinion, and the second engineer also agreed with the first expert.
The hometown edition, according to Nyovest, is geared towards uplifting the artists of the North West and bringing the vibe to the provincial capital.
Nyovest will be supported on the day by top local hip-hop and Amapiano brands such as Nasty C, Kwesta, Khuli Chana, Tuks, Mo Molemi, Morafe, Limpopo sensation, Makhadzi, Kamo Mphela, Maglera Doe Boy and Musa Keys.
Amongst the hosts are:
Somizi,
Carpo and
Pamela Mtanga.
