Granddad of Zimbabwean gospel music Baba Mechanic Manyeruke is retiring from public performances.
The Makorokoto singer will say goodbye to his fans in style with a retirement dinner set for Friday at Casino Marina at Long Cheng Plaza starting at 6:30pm.
It will be a combination of food, dance and drinks on the night as fans bid farewell to the pioneering star who has entertained fans over the last three decades.
Like Thomas Mapfumo, Baba Manyeruke wants to retire from stage and focus on other things.
At the retirement dinner, Baba Manyeruke will also launch his much-anticipated biography.
In a promo video ahead of the dinner, Baba Manyeruke promised fans not to despair saying he will show up at national events such as music galas.
“Zvirokwazvo hongu ndazorora but unoziva kuzorora hakusi kufa, nokuchembera hakusi kufa ndazorora zvangu asi kune mabasa enyuka ndikasheedzwa ndinouya musatya zvenyu kuzorora,” he said.
He also urged fans to come in their number to support the initiative.
