Family members of deceased Zimbabwean musician Oliver Mtukudzi will stage separate memorial events this September. Daisy Mtukudzi plans the official festival for September 20, while daughter Selmor schedules a trail run the following day. The competing celebrations reflect ongoing disputes within the family since the artist died in 2019.

Last year, tensions erupted when Selmor walked off stage during the inaugural memorial festival. The daughters later discussed their grievances publicly on a podcast program. Daisy expressed determination to continue with her planned event despite the financial difficulties facing the organizers.

Selmor's trail run at Lake Chivero will feature an obstacle course for approximately 500 participants. The event addresses issues of gender-based violence through fitness activities. Event managers anticipate renewed public debate about the family conflicts as both memorial dates approach. Music fans remain divided over the separate approaches to honoring the beloved performer's legacy.
