Zahara, real name Bulelwa Mkutukana is reportedly in the hospital due to liver complications. The singer is said to be in a critical state and has been hospitalised for almost one week. According to Zimoja, the star was admitted to a medical ward, but her condition became worse and she was transferred to the ICU section of the private hospital in Johannesburg.
A source close to the family said that “her liver is severely scarred and she may need a liver transplant.” The 36-year-old’s fiance Mpho Xaba is with her during this trying time.
“They are also holding prayer vigils for her to get better in both Joburg and East London, where she comes from,” the source said. The family is reportedly trying to raise funds to save the singer’s life.
“We hear that she is aware that Zahara is battling with her health and she needs to do some tests. We are trying to get her to assist her financially because when TK took her to Joburg to record in 2010, Zahara stayed with them at their home for over a year,” reveals the source.
Another source said: “Do they want Zahara to die so that they can also claim they loved her? The sad this is that Zahara’s fiance is doing his best to save her. But the family needs money because the tests she is doing run into thousands of rands.
