He is currently receiving free treatment at Westview Clinic Kuwadzana. Dr Johannes Marisa is taking care of the artist at the moment.

The doctor said:

We are doing our best to manage his condition since he is suffering from severe abdominal problems.

“We have managed to suppress the pain while further tests are being carried out, especially the colonoscopy to establish if he is not developing a serious problems,” he said.

“To be honest, the medical team here has been monitoring me 24/7 and they have been assisting me to manage the pain.

“To be honest, I didn’t know that great people of Dr Marisa’s calibre still exist,” he said.
