While the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown has caused widespread devastation, it has helped former Idols SA star Mthokozisi Ndaba to kick a “strong” alcohol and tobacco habit.
The muso and actor took to social media this week to open up about the effects the ban on alcohol and tobacco sales had on him.
“In everything there’s a good and a bad side, indeed the lockdown healing process had paralysed our country in many ways, but also it has forcefully rehabilitated me from my strong addiction to alcohol and cigarette without attending professional help.”
Despite his sobriety, Mthokozisi will remain a brand ambassador of Barkunski Original Vodka.
“We work perfectly fine together but personally I am free, clean and sober minded,” he added.
He thanked his wife, family and friends for all encouraging him and supporting him on his journey so far.
“To God be all the glory,” he added.
He added that alcohol was not the issue but drinking irresponsibly was, and often led to addiction.
