Rapper Stunner (real name Desmond Chideme) who was
critically ill and hospitalised for weeks has been discharged and wants people
to know one thing, that Covid-19 is real.
Although his ailment was not made public, Stunner this
weekend took to his Instagram account to share a saucy image and advise people
that he is out of danger, but with a crucial message. He advised people to
protect themselves from the deadly Covid-19 pandemic whose cases in the country
are on the rise.
“The funny thing about Covid is that people think
varikuitirwa hutsinye muma road nemabhawa (people think they are being treated
unfairly by being given restrictions on movements and the closure of bars).
“They are even organising house parties to substitute bars
. . . the biggest mistake is thinking we won’t get it from people we know or
our relatives or rich people. Covid is not selective and cowards live longest,”
wrote Stunner.
His message came at a time when rumours were doing the
rounds that several people who patronised a party in Bulawayo’s affluent
suburb, Burnside last month contracted the coronavirus with some allegedly
succumbing to it.
Well aware of the seriousness of the disease, also likely
due to the treatment he got at the hospital as all patients are being treated
with extra caution in case they have the virus, Stunner said he did not allow
visitors while in hospital.
“I didn’t allow visitors at the hospital even though many
of you wanted to come through. You didn’t know what my illness was and you were
still by the doorstep and same way, I didn’t know what you’d bring in. Covid is
real guys and it’s killing people. I’m 100% fit and still practising safety at
home,” added Stunner. Chronicle
