Manyeruke On Retirement Plans

Gospel music icon Baba Machanic Manyeruke, a living legend, says his family, friends and colleagues are pushing him to scrap his retirement plans from performing.

Manyeruke, known as the grandfather of Zimbabwe’s gospel music patriarch, has just returned from a successful three-month tour of the UK, where he performed at shows and led church conferences.

“I have always mentored several musicians without touting my accomplishments. I believe the time will come when my mentees will share their testimonies about how I impacted their lives, whether during my lifetime or after my departure”.

“As a musician and father, I do my job quietly, allowing the world to judge me through my works, which will endure beyond my death.”

Starting his music career in colonial times, Manyeruke encouraged artists to adapt to the times.

Manyeruke further confirmed that he started long ago, and with today’s technological revolution, he hopes to see artists embrace these changes.

” Personally, I have also adopted new technologies, recognising that my family can monetise my music even after I’m gone,” he said
