Zimdancehall chanter Hwindi President has revealed that he is in financial trouble due to skyrocketing medical bills after an accident left him and three other team members nursing serious injuries.
The chanter, alongside his elder brother, Blessing Parehwa, disc jockey Tinashe Chatiza and manager Learnmore Mukonoweshuro were all injured in the crash when the chanter lost control of his Honda Fit vehicle.
The accident occurred in Beatrice while the quartet were on their way back to Harare from a show in Masvingo.
Hwindi President, who admitted that they were all lucky to be alive, told The Herald that they had exhausted all their funds following the accident. He appealed for help from well-wishers.
“We are home and grounded since we have exhausted our savings to foot part of the medical bills. I have chest pains and my leg was injured in the process,” he said.
“My brother was seriously injured together with the DJ and our manager. We need at least US$600 to pay our medical expenses since we have nothing left in our coffers.
“We are appealing for help from our well-wishers, friends and promoters who are willing to help us lessen the burden.”
Hwindi President had been part of a stellar lineup that included Winky D, Gemma Griffiths, Mbeu, and Mr Candy at the Lake October gig in Masvingo. The chanter reportedly performed admirably before the sad turn of events.

We pray for speedy recovery
