Touts on the Run After Snatching US$17k from Hitchhiker
Zimbabwean philanthropist Stephen Buzhu, popularly known as Uncle Saint, has revealed that he has been silently battling cancer.
The free-giving socialite took to his official Facebook account on Monday and announced that he has been secretly battling the illness for nearly four years.
While he poured his heart out about his journey from the day he was diagnosed to where he is now, he chose not to disclose the specific cancer he is fighting.
Uncle Saint said after he was diagnosed with cancer, doctors recommended that he undergo an operation. He opted not to have surgery since he was staying alone in Dubai.
Upon his return to Zimbabwe, he felt a sense of improved health, until just last week, when he felt the illness resurface with intensified force. He wrote:
“Ichokwadi Hurwere Hwakandibata Hunouraya Uye Ini Ndakazvigamuchira Asi Chandinoziva Chinouraya Inguva YaMwari. Kunyangwe Ndakave Naho Kwemakore Anogona Kusvika Mana Ndaive Ndakanyarara Hangu Nekuti Ndaingozviti Chinhu Chisineyi Hacho. Mushure Mekunge Ndabatwa Nacho Kana Mucharangarira Pandaigara KuDubai Ndakaudzwa Zvekuitwa Operation Asi Ini Ndikatya Nekuti Ndaingove Ndega Ikoko. Pandakadzoka KuZim Ndakanzwa Kupora Kwazvo Kusvika Week Rakapera Paye Ndiri KuNyanga Zvakadzoka Nesimba.”
