Veteran Tanzanian singer Mr Nice has finally cleared the air regarding rumors posted on local social media insinuating that the singer could be HIV positive.
The singer who is currently doing a number of his songs in Kenya came clean on his status besides explaining reasons as to why he was admitted in hospital for months before finally being discharged.
Speaking to SDE he posed, “Do I look like I am HIV positive, or dying for that matter? Truth is, I am fit as a fiddle healthwise contrary to recent reports that went doing rounds insinuating that I could be living positively.”
“I do not deny having been admitted in hospital sometime last year for a period of about three months owing to the fact that I was poisoned during the campaign season and to date I have no idea who would want to finish me. Nevertheless, I owe my life to God,” he said.
Asked on the current competition between some of the top Tanzanian artists this is what he had to say, “Kusema kweli wasanii wa Tanzania wamekuwa wakishindana wenyewe kwa wenyewe, kila mmoja anataka kufanya kazi nzuri kuliko mwenzake. Kwa hiyo binafsi naona hii hali imesaidia kuwajenga wasanii wa Tanzania pamoja na muziki kiujumla.”
