“September 2023, I was hospitalised after repeated cases of exhaustion. Ahh my eyes have seen… I had lots of injectables in five days.
“October 2023, mildly recovered my singing voice after seeking medical assistance despite not undergoing surgery.
“November 2023, I am fully back on stage. I finished my album ‘Tears of the Sun’, set to be released on November 17.
