‘Tedius was a good man’

By Nyasha Kada

One of the late Tedious Matsito’s band members Noah “Gede” Shava says they have lost a good man who had a kind heart in good and bad times.

Gede, one of the members that became popular with sungura music fans after the hit song “Gede mwana Gede,” said that he will always cherish the good heart Matsito had.

“Tarasikirwa nemunhu anga aine moyo wakanaka, even when I struggled he would invite me to come and eat at his house and he would give me whether he had plenty or little.

“He then told me to move in with him and I had been staying with him for the past four years or so,” said Gede.

He also said that he would help out whenever Tedious’ wife was away at work.

“Whenever his wife was not around I would bath him and help out on things he needed to be done,” he added.

He said now that Matsito is gone they are now looking to continue with his legacy as hethey left his his son Muchapedza to work with.

“We want his name and music to continue to live.

“For the past two years we have been working with his son, he was the one that instructed us to work with him and we will continue to do so,” he said. H-Metro
