20 September 2012
I would like to wish my
mentor, Superstar Oliver Tuku Mtukudzi a happy 60th birthday. You have matured like wine and I am very delighted to
having been a product of such a music giant like you.
You have been like a
father to me and indeed you continue to bring inspiration to us as your products. With your vast experience in the music industry, you have been our teacher, our guardian and we are working hard to reach your levels.
Proudly I can say that to us you are now like
our answering machine, in our arts industry we face a lot of difficulties but
of all the challenges we face you always bring solutions to them. Solutions that probably you once used in your spanning carrier of more than three decades.

One thing that you have taught
me, is discipline and I wish to assure you that me as one of your products will
not let you down. I am humbled by your love and care, you have made us feel at
home. I extended my gratitude to you for building a home for us, Pakare Paye Arts
Centre, a place where i cut my teeth in the music industry.
Pakare Paye Centre
has natured a lot of other young musicians who are now holding their own. Thank
you. On behalf of Kazevezeve and myself i do wish that the Lord grant you many years and continue the
wonderful works that you are doing for all the younger generation of artists.
Turning 60 is not a joke, let your story
continue being an inspiration to us in our work as musicians. It is never an
easy road as you continuously advice us we will strive our best to make the best
out of you.
It would not be fair if I fail
to recognise and mention our mother, Daisy Mtukudzi who has been your pillar
for all these years. She has taken me as her child, the values and advice she continues giving us is our source of inspiration and motivation. May the Lord bless your
family.
