Attention to you all I have a very serious announcement to make, this is coming from the bottom of my heart meaning it was my opinion I think that you are all going to second me in this one, We all know Zola 7 whose real name is Bonginkosi Dlamini, Zola started to make a name for himself while playing the role of Papa Action in Yizo Yizo 2. It was when he rose to prominence as a singer with the song Ghetto Fabulous before, launching various television programs, including Zola on Take 5, Zola 7, Hope with Zola and uTatakho.He was also doing an afternoon program on Massive Metro (online radio).He also starred in the Oscar-winning film Tsotsi , His future began to falter in the entertainment industry when he disagreed with his recording company Ghetto Ruff.
Ever since zola was diagnosed with epilepsy, his life has not been the same. A lot has chang about him, and we don’t even see him on our television screens anymore. It is sad to see a famous person like him whose future is in jeopardy over a serious illness his battling.
So that is why am begging the whole nation, kwaito artists, Kwaito music fans and everyone else in who resides in South Africa to pray for him, Zola needs our prayers in this situation.We cannot remain silent and watch him fight epilepsy alone when he has done everything in his power to change people’s lives in this country, right now he needs us to support him with everything we have just like he did to some of our fellow South Africans.
Singers, celebrities and everyone else let’s take this opportunity to pray for this legend who is gifted and talented young musician for a strength and recovery, he really needs us as colleagues, fans to encourage him not to loose hope, he should know that in this situation he is not alone but we as a nation, his followers as a whole we will support him in the fight against this epilepsy disease.
I say this because ever since Zola was diagnosed with epilepsy he has not received enough support.I was devastated when I read one of the newspapers explaining how serious his condition was.He is said his to be bedridden due to epilepsy.
The veteran superstar has said he has been diagnosed with epilepsy, three years ago,he said he would suddenly fainted unexpectedly.
He said he would sometimes collapse get up, and collapse again in less than two hours.He also said he went to the hospital and was told by doctors that he had some complications in his head and they examined him with a machine.
He was then advice by doctors to at least walk for an hour.
Zola went on to say his condition was critical and that he had decided not to drive again because it would lead to a very serious road accident.
You will recall when it came to the news that he had a car accident due to epilepsy, he also explained further as to what happened that day he said the disease struck him on his way from Zola, to Khwezi. Unfortunately, he had been traveling alone in the car, if there was someone nearby he would probably have been able to avoid the car accident.
Speaking to the media, he said that as a result of the accident he lost R 60 000 which he had to pay for repairs to a damaged car. He said he was involved in the accident when he was traveling in a car he had borrowed from someone else because his own had also died of because the being struck by epilepsy.
He even mentioned that last year he was very sick, shivering.He said he was so stressed that most people were afraid he might die because he was failing to eat properly.He could just eat or drink ‘amahehu’ and fish.
He said doctors had given him the medication he needed to take and that he had been forced to take two pills in the morning and two at night. He concluded by saying that the songs he recorded with Cassper Nyovest, he recorded them under a very difficult times because he would sometimes be forced to stop recording.
All this he has been telling the media I know some of you were judging him, mocking him and say whatever things likes but it has become clear that he needs our prayers and support more than because his situation is getting worsen .That is why I say at this time Zola needs prayers and support from us.
