Cebonkosi Mthembu Loses His Voice

Popular SA actor cum radio personality Cebonkosi Mthembu, has revealed in an interview with Daily Sun that he lost his voice at the beginning of February 

The actor, who used to be captain Nyawo on “Uzalo” has now been downgraded to detective Nyawo because of his incompetency has become a fan-favourite and a household name because of his humour. He also works for a community radio station; Vibe FM and hasn’t been able to work on the radio since his voice is gone.  He has tried everything to regain his voice, but nothing seems to be working.

He stated in the interview with the Daily sun; 

“I was diagnosed with Covid-19 at the beginning of this year. My father was too. He died on 3 January. After my self-isolation, I was cleared of Covid, so I went back to work. But my voice just disappeared this month. I went back to consult a doctor, but he gave me something for Covid. I have tried drinking honey, Vitamin C supplements, but nothing is working.

At the community radio presenters like myself hope big radio stations would hire them for their new changes. But honestly, which radio stations could hire someone who is voiceless. I’m scared; I don’t know what to do now. My voice is my everything. Now I have lost it I feel like I’m losing everything.”
