Tamborinyoka spends Christmas out of hospital
By Lance Guma
Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai’s spokesman Luke Tamborinyoka, who was battling for his life in the intensive care unit of the Avenues Clinic in Harare last month following a car accident, was discharged from the same hospital sometime last week.
He suffered head injuries, broken ribs, a perforated lung and lost a lot of blood when the rear tyre of his Toyota Prado burst near Domboshava causing the vehicle to overturn several times before it landed on its roof.
Last month a worried friend told Nehanda Radio “Luke is in a very difficult position right now. The head injuries are very serious. We are praying for him as we speak. He lost a lot of blood and it’s not looking good.”
An MDC-T official today told us Tamborinyoka was now “up and running and spent Christmas with his family at their rural home in Domboshava. He is in very good spirits. His miraculous recovery is God’s testimony on two legs.”
Asked when he might be back at work, the official said “it’s his choice; he will have to take his time.” The news will come as a huge relief for family and friends of the former Daily News journalist now Tsvangirai’s spokesman.
