be back on stage.
Mumiriki (42), popularly known as “Yahwe WekwaKaruru”, was relaxing on a sofa when The Herald arrived at his Chitungwiza home.
“I am feeling better as you can see. My condition has greatly improved since I was discharged from hospital.
“I’m able to walk without any aid and it is an improvement because I was wheelchair-bound before I was ferried to the hospital,” Mumiriki said.
The father of three also promised to be back on stage as early as he feels better to play his guitar.
“I have to be back on stage because this is my career. I miss being on stage and it is only that there is nothing I can do to make it a rapid recovery,” said Lucky.
Orchestra Mberikwazvo has not abandoned Mumiriki especially during this hard time when he needs their assistance and support.
“Band members are always here to wish me well as well as paying hospital bills,” he said.
His wife, Shylet, said Mumiriki’s colleagues accompany him for his physiotherapy on a daily basis.
Mumiriki started his career as a rhythm guitarist with Hurungwe Sounds before he moved to Sungura Boys in 1990 where he worked with the late System Tazvida.
In 1993 the pair formed Chazezesa Challengers and flourished together until System’s death in1999.
He further worked alone until 2002 June when he joined Alick Macheso to record “Zvido Zvenyu Kunyanya” his first project with Orchestra Mberikwazvo.
