Musician Oliver Mtukudzi has come out in the open about his health status saying he is sick but not dying.
He said he is also a human being who falls sick sometime.
"Well, you know people, our fans, those who like what we do at times they get confused, they can't separate Oliver Mtukudzi from the art.
"By so doing and because they are so overwhelmed by what they like about Mtukudzi they don't see him as a person. To them Mtukudzi should not get sick.
"Mtukudzi should always be healthy to give them what they want, but Mtukudzi is a human being. Mtukudzi is a human being who catches diseases and falls sick like everyone else," he said.
Mtukudzi turns 63 this coming Tuesday.
He added "Off course I spoke about being diabetic back then because I was scared at the time. I didn't even know what being diabetic meant.
"Mtukudzi is not made of steel, he is a human being like you."
