Vusi Nova Recovers From Bacterial Infection
Musician Vusi Nova had to cancel his performance in Bloemfontein, after suffering from a bacterial infection, which also affected his most prized possession, his voice.

He was set to perform at the Mangaung African Cultural Festival, also known as Macufe, on Saturday night but had to miss that performance after being hospitalized.

The Asphelelanga singer apologized to fans and expressed how the situation was beyond his control.

He also took to Instagram to thank everyone for the support saying he has been discharged from the hospital and his voice is ‘back and better than before.’ He is set to perform in Botswana, Namibia and Nigeria.

This is the second health issue that the muso has encountered this year after he was hospitalized from suffering a panic attack in January. The most important thing, at this point, was that he needed to take time off and just relax and take it easy.

Vusi posted a picture of himself; proclaiming his return and jokingly said he needs a new haircut.

The “get well soon” messages seemed to have helped motivate the star to get back on his feet!
