He was readmitted last Monday after doctors realised that he was still in need of medical attention.

A close family friend Kudakwashe Matibiri said Tamborinyoka was readmitted after doctors requested to examine him further.

“Luke was released on Sunday last week and went home and was due for a check-up on Monday. An X-ray was performed and it was discovered that there was air trapped in his lungs. He is now back in the clinic but other than, that he is in good shape,” Matibiri said.

“Doctors discovered that there was undesirable air, but he is eating and moving up and down the clinic.”

Tamborinyoka was involved in a near-fatal car crash last month, after his vehicle burst a rear tyre and rolled several times, on his way to his rural home in Domboshawa.
