Sungura music legend Nicholas “Madzibaba” Zakaria has continued to perform live shows abroad, despite reports suggesting he has been unwell.
In a recent interview with <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/thestandard/standard-style/article/200028642/im-fit-as-a-fiddle-says-madzibaba">The Standard</a>, Zakaria acknowledged he had been experiencing health issues, but stated he was now feeling much better and planned to proceed with scheduled live performances in Mozambique. He said:
<blockquote>
Yes, I have not been well, but I am in a much better state and departing for weekend shows in Mozambique this evening [last Thursday].
About the media reports concerning my health, it’s only natural that anything relating to a person of my stature would attract widespread coverage.
I welcome the outpouring of love from music fans, journalists, fellow musicians, industry stakeholders and the general populace.
</blockquote>
Zakaria kicked off his Mozambican tour with a show at the Predio Zeka Aolado Da Bomba last Friday, followed by another performance at the Cine UNIAO (SONGO).
He will conclude his tour in Mozambique with a show at the Mutarara Nhambayamwe on Tuesday (tomorrow).
Zakaria revealed he intends to showcase songs from his upcoming album during the Mozambique performances, offering concertgoers a preview ahead of the album’s scheduled release later this year.
Addressing reports about Zakaria’s health concerns and financial difficulties, fellow musician Baba Harare lamented the challenges faced by local artists who have worked tirelessly for years yet have little to show for their efforts. He wrote on Facebook:
<blockquote>
Kune dzimwe nyika dai vave kurarama nemaroyalties ezvishandwa. Kuno unotofa wakaruma mic despite a long life of servitude in the music industry. Hauna sick leave hauna sick pay. Sending prayers and good wishes kuna baba. May the good Lord make you whole.
</blockquote>
State media reports last week indicated Zakaria was struggling to make ends meet amid battles with diabetes, hypertension, and cramps that were making it difficult for him to walk.
Zakaria is credited for nurturing musicians such as Alick Macheso, System Tazvida, Amon Mvula, Cephas Karushanga and Simon Mutambi, among others.
He has been in the music industry for close to 48 years with Mabvi Nemagokora and Ndine Mubvunzo being his most popular albums among his 29 albums.

Ailing Sungura Star Nicholas Zakaria Presses On with International Performances

Sungura music legend Madzibaba Nicholas Zakaria is appealing for help as he battles diabetes, hypertension, and cramps that have made it difficult for him to walk.
In an interview with <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/watch-madzibaba-zakaria-appeals-for-help-amidst-struggles-with-diabetes/">State media</a>, the 69-year-old Zakaria revealed he has shelved plans to record his 30th album due to poor health. He said:
<blockquote>
I am dying slowly due to an illness that has jeopardised my plans. Sometimes I struggle to walk when I come under attack. I have battled this condition for years, but it’s now getting worse.
I don’t know where I will get help because I am struggling to make ends meet like most singers out there.
Live shows are no longer rewarding since people are also struggling to raise money to attend shows.
I have opened up about my illness because I don’t want to die in silence like most artistes out there.
In my life, I have never suffered like this because my condition keeps on deteriorating with each passing day.
</blockquote>
Speaking at their home in Chitungwiza recently, Zakaria’s wife, Margaret Gweshe, also appealed for Good Samaritans’ help, saying they are failing to raise money for food. She said:
<blockquote>
My husband’s health deteriorated two years ago, he is no longer the same due to poor health.
Sometimes he complains of dizziness and he struggles to appear on stage on time during his live performances.
We are appealing for help from well-wishers because we are failing to cater for his needs. He is on a special diet.
The band told me that my husband sometimes appears on stage late since he is sick.
When he is under attack, he forces himself to perform for the sake of his fans. On Thursday, he is going to Mozambique for some shows because he doesn’t have a choice since music remains his only source of income.
</blockquote>
The “Senior Lecturer” as Zakaria is affectionately called, mentored other Sungura stars such as Alick Macheso, System Tazvida, Cephas Karushanga, Amon Mvula, Aaron Chinamira Chakanyuka, and Simon Mutambi.

Nicholas Zakaria Appeals For Help As He Battles Diabetes And Hypertension

Sungura musician Nicholas Zakaria has expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Wicknell Chivayo after the controversial businessman gave him a brand-new car.
Chivayo announced this Monday, March 25, that Zakaria should collect a 2024 Toyota Fortuner 2.8D 4×4 GD6 vehicle from Exquisite Dealership.
Chivayo said the car gift was to recognise Zakaria’s continued support at ZANU PF, his participation at national events and also his “significant and remarkable contribution” to the music industry in the country. In response, Zakaria said:
<blockquote>
Ndaona hukuru hwaMwari. Zvinhu zvakadai ndizvo zvinoita zuva nezuva ndirambe ndichirumbidza musiki.
Chaingova chishuwo chekuti dai ndatengawo imwe motokari inorerutsa basa pakufamba asi Mwari vaiziva kuti pane nzira yazvichaitika nayo.
Sir Wicknell, ini nemhuri yangu handigone kukutendai kanokwana. Zita renyu richagara nekusingaperi paminamato yangu kusvika magamuchidzwa chese chamunoda nemoyo wenyu.
Rambai mune moyo wekupa. Rambai makamira nesu . Ndichitendawo vabereki vakatiunzira Sir Wicknell pasi pezuva. Tinotenda zvikuru.
(I have seen the greatness of God. It is because of such things that I continue to praise the Creator. It was my wish to buy another car to make travel easier but God knew he had a plan. Sir Wicknell, my family and I are truly grateful. I will remember you in my prayers forever until God grants you the desires of your heart.)
</blockquote>
Chivayo has given cars to multiple artistes over the past several months. On March 8, Chivayo gifted musician Alick Macheso a new car.
Chivayo recently surprised musician Sandra Ndebele with a 2022 MERCEDES BENZ GLE400d, valued at US$155,000. This generous gift came just days after he bought musician Sulumani Chimbetu a 2022 Mercedes Benz GLE300d worth US$140,000.
Jah Prayzah, another prominent Zimbabwean musician, received a luxurious Mercedes-Benz S500 from Wicknell Chivayo.
Musician Sulumani Chimbetu was gifted a 2022 Mercedes Benz GLE300d by Wicknell Chivayo.
Wicknell’s generosity extended to DJ Fantanand renowned radio hosts Tinashe Chikuse and Phathisani Sibanda, whom he gave Toyota Aqua vehicles.
Chivayo has also gifted cars or cash to other artists, including DJ Masomera, Chief Hwenje, Sabhuku Vharazipi, Chairman, Ambuya Mai John, and Mathias Mhere.

"I Have Seen God's Greatness", Nicholas Zakaria Responds To Car Gift From "Sir Wicknell"

Legendary Sungura musician Nicholas “Madzibaba” Zakaria is the latest artiste to receive a car gift from controversial businessman Wicknell Chivayo. 
Posting on his social media pages from Dubai this Monday morning, Chivayo said Madzibaba should collect his 2024 Toyota Fortuner 2.8D 4×4 GD6 vehicle from Exquisite Dealership.
Chivayo said the car gift was to recognise Zakaria’s continued support at ZANU PF, his participation at national events and also his “significant and remarkable contribution” to the music industry in the country. He wrote:
<blockquote>
I say very BIG congratulations to my brother in Christ, no one other than the “SENIOR LECTURER” himself, MADZIBABA NICHOLAS ZACHARIAH…Your letter in response to my post was well received with thanks and the content thereof respectfully noted…Ndinoti iyo MAZDA BT50 yedu yanga yakuti netsa iya mu zuva ra nhasi chairo chitsvagaiwo weku govera imimi se MUNHU MUKURU neku kurumidza ndapota PLEASE GO AND SEE VICTOR at EXQUISITE DEALERSHIP 29 Mazowe Street Cnr, Josiah Tongogara St, your brand spanking new 2024 TOYOTA FORTUNER 2,8d GD6 4X4 LUXURY is ready for collection…CHIPO CHINOUYA SE ROMBE CHAKA TUNGAMIRIRWA NA MARIA 🙏🙏🙏…Your participation and continued support at ZANU PF and other NATIONAL events throughout the years together with the significant and remarkable contribution you’ve made in the music industry will never be forgotten… Today i celebrate and appreciate you nekuti Takanzi se VATENDI chino tanga ITSITSI NE RUDO KOZOUYA KUNAMATA…Please enjoy your brand-new car and always give thanks and praise above…
</blockquote>
Chivayo was recently embroiled in a public controversy with Zakaria after a video surfaced online showing the musician conversing with another individual at a mechanic shop while his car underwent repairs.
The individual, seemingly a fan, inquired about Zakaria’s car. Zakaria explained that he had been using the same car for years, which had become old and prone to breakdowns.
Despite the fan’s suggestion that a music legend like Zakaria deserved a better car for shows or church, there was no mention of Wicknell Chivayo in the conversation, nor any request for a car from him.
However, Chivayo took offence to the video, interpreting it as a demand for a car from him. He publicly criticised Zakaria, accusing him of seeking a car gift.
In response to Chivayo’s outburst, Zakaria clarified that the video was merely an advertisement for the mechanic’s business and expressed no intention to tell Chivayo how to spend his money.

Nicholas Zakaria Gets Brand-new Toyota Fortuner From Chivayo

Sungura musician Mark Ngwazi said he was humbled by Nicholas Zakaria’s gesture when he assisted him free of charge when he recorded his second album in 2017.
Ngwazi revealed that Zakaria, who is widely known as Madzibaba or Senior Lecturer in the music industry, showed up to his recording studio even though he didn’t know who he was.
He said the Senior Lecturer helped him on the song Vaimbi on the album titled Gudo Muriwo. Said Ngwazi:
<blockquote>
Let me take this time to appreciate my father, Nicholas Zakariah.
In 2017 when I wanted to release my second album, I looked for his number and contacted him to ask for his help.
Without any hustle Madzibaba showed up at the studio I was recording my music.
He helped me without even knowing me. After helping me on a song, he didn’t ask for any money.
When he I called him, he didn’t know my name, and he asked when he should come to the studio.
</blockquote>
Ngwazi also disclosed that the late John Chibadura’s music inspired him, adding that the beat on the late Mr. Chitungwiza’s song “Rairai Vana” helped him come up with the song “Kugona Ngozi Kuiraira”. | <a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/ngwazi-hails-madzibaba-zakaria/">H-Metro</a>

Nicholas Zakaria Launching New Album Tonight

Renowned Sungura musician Nicholas “Madzibaba” Zakaria has condemned a tendency by some “philanthropists” to draw attention to themselves when they make donations to the needy during this coronavirus-induced lockdown.
Madzibaba said while it is commendable to have a large heart and alleviate the suffering of mankind, foundations, individuals and corporates should desist from degrading the beneficiaries when they make donations. He said:
<blockquote>We have seen some people coming out to help the vulnerable. This is something commendable as we still have people with a heart to help others in need and we should thank them.
This, however, should be done in a decent way that will not degrade the beneficiaries. There are also others who want to benefit from this, diverting the aid from the deserving people.</blockquote>
On his music, Zakaria said he is creating new material which will be ready when the coronavirus crisis comes to an end.
The “Senior Lecturer”, as he is known in music circles for grooming several upcoming singers, also added his voice on gender-based violence after joining a group of other men under Padare, discussing issues around the home.

Tedius Muchapedza Matsito Laid To Rest

Sungura musician Nicholas Zakaria told Daily News he left Walter Magaya’s Prophetic Healing and Deliverance (PHD) Ministries, a church he served for five years.
The singer is now a member of Ebenezer Prophetic Ministries International led by one Ezekiel Masiyandima, also a former member of PHD Ministries. Masiyandima’s church is based in Chitungwiza. He said he left Magaya’s church because of distance. Said Zakaria:
<blockquote>I left PHD Ministries because of the distance. It was difficult for me to travel to Waterfalls (Harare) from Chitungwiza regularly. I was spending much of my time on the road, therefore it was also affecting my work. At PHD Ministries, I served as a ministerial worker hence I was expected at the church time and again. This jeopardised my rehearsals. Now, it is much easier to operate from Chitungwiza.</blockquote>
He also said he wants to quit music for farming.
