Admits he was sick for sometime but now strong

By Staff Reporter


Singer-song-writer Katelere Ching’oma broke his silence on his recent health condition for the first time during a performance at Mibawa Multipurpose Hall on Saturday night.

Speaking during the performance, Ching’oma who disappeared from the music scene early last year, praised God for healing him from an undisclosed illness and thanked his family and friends who supported him during his sickness.

“Most of you probably know or saw the news about my illness …others reached to the point of spreading rumors that I was dead. Yes, I was sick but here I am now. I was really sick for quite some time and I just thank God that I am alive today.”

The ‘Ndiri nawo Mwayi’ hit-maker then assured his fans that he is now strong and promised them new music and more musical performances.

To show that he was indeed thankful to God, Katelere performed Grace Chinga’s ‘Thandizo Langa’ to the excitement of the crowd that patronised the show and those who watched it live via Facebook.

During a recent interview at Mikozi Studios, the singer asked Malawians to give him a second chance to prove to them that he is one of the best artists in the country.
