Lundi Tyamara is reportedly recovering at home after spending one month in hospital.

weekend.

0cm;line-height:14.15pt;background:white;vertical-align:baseline">“He is not looking well

at all but we are praying that he beats this. He is suffering from abdominal

tuberculosis, chest pains and he has had a liver problem for a while now,” the

first source, who visited him recently in hospital, said.

boy of gospel’’ following his battle with drugs and alcohol addictions.

‘Rolling With Lundi’ Tyamara spoke openly about how he managed to overcome the addictions and other challenges with the help of family and fellow gospel stars.

change drinking spots until the media eventually caught onto my bad habit.” he

said.

vertical-align:baseline">“I don’t think he will be able to perform for a while after being

released. It is important that people, especially artists, start taking a good

care of themselves and their health. Let’s all put him in our prayers as we

cannot afford to lose another gospel star like we did end of last year with

Sfiso Ncwane,” said another source close to Tyamara.
