L’vovo’s speech has been affected by the stroke and he has a slight facial droop.

The musician also told the publication that he learnt to look after his body.

“When we work we tend to eat the wrong food on the streets. What I’ve learnt from this is to take care of myself and my body, not to overwork and to maintain a healthy diet.”

The musician could not bid a final farewell to his friend Mampintsha who was laid to rest on Friday, 30th December 2022.

Taking to his Instagram timeline, he shared a video of himself with his family dancing to the late Big Nuz’s song of the year Ngeke featuring DJ Yamza.
