A Xhosa praise singer has come under criticism for shouting that a cabinet minister had a large posterior, The Star reported on Tuesday.

The young unnamed praise singer compared Agriculture and Land Affairs Minister Lulu Xingwana, to a "chicken with a big bum".

This was at the launch of Land and Agrarian Land reform Project and Land rights awareness Campaign, at Rockhurst Farm near Grahamstown.

He was reported to have said: "Le ntombi inempundu ezinkulu ngathi yinkukhu ehleziphezu kwamaqanda (This woman with a big bum looks like a chicken sitting on eggs)."

The comment was a metaphorical context of a chicken sitting on a nest of eggs that would hatch with great benefits for the people.

It didn't go unnoticed by Xingwana who took to the podium and laughed it off, before commenting that praise singers could sometimes make harmful personal comments. - Sapa
