‘I’m Struggling Like Any Other Widow’: Daisy Mtukudzi

Widow to the late Oliver ‘Tuku’ Mtukudzi, Daisy has said she is now struggling like any other widow as she feels deserted and there is no one to help her when she needs assistance.

Last weekend, Tuku’s family, friends, and fans took time to remember the departed Black Spirits founder who succumbed to Diabetes two years ago.

According to H-Metro, Daisy said:

“Life will never be the same without Tuku and I feel like I am standing on one leg.
“I have no one to turn to when I encounter problems like failure to pay my domestic bills and other things.
“I’m one person who is uncomfortable with borrowing from others because people assume I have it all.
“I’m struggling like any other widow but to be honest there is no one I can say has been assisting me when I need help.
“I only pray to God for help because he is the one who is looking after widows,”
There is nothing that we could do because of the Covid-19 lockdown.
“It’s no longer time for festivities with this pandemic because the coronavirus is real.
“We all need to take full responsibility of our actions these days due to the Covid-19,”
“When I miss the good things we do together or when I am stuck, I close my bedroom and start crying indoors.
“Sometimes it appears like I am talking to him with God by his side hearing our conversation.
“The wound is still fresh and I get more affected especially when we are commemorating his legacy like now.
“He was a loving and caring husband who taught me to work on my own despite all the fame he had.
“He knew that one days one of us would leave first and it so happened it was him who left us early and we have to be content with that fate.”
“I might be a widow but there comes a time when life must go on and I am also expected to fend for the family.
“In my case, I am into farming and this year we planted maize and soya beans but I have challenges to acquire loans nokuti ndinotya chikwereti.”
