Macheso, who was injured about a month ago in Guruve, appeared on stage at Pamuzinda Highway Escape without crutches.
Though he performed in front of a handful crowd, the musician showed excitement over his recovery.
“I was having sleepless nights because of this leg and even my family was getting worried,” said Macheso.
He added that for almost a month he was in pain and could not go to their practice sessions at Aquatic Complex in Chitungwiza.
Though he was happy that he had recovered from the injury, Macheso failed to attract the huge crowds at the show.
Pamuzinda Highway Escape has become one of his favourite home grounds and he has been enjoying huge crowds at the venue.
