Sungura musician Bigboy Motsi, popularly known as Mr Muzarabani, has released a song meant to de-stigmatise issues around HIV and Aids.
Titled Hutano Hwangu (My Health My Pride), the song humanises those living with HIV while challenging negative stereotypes.
Apart from releasing the song, Motsi has been working with the National Aids Council in raising awareness, thus educating people about HIV and Aids and promoting understanding.
“The song is about dispelling the myths around HIV and Aids and fighting stigma,” said Motsi.
“Being HIV positive doesn't mean the end of the world.
“I am working with NAC and as you see, we have been supporting their HIV testing and counselling programme.”
Last Wednesday, Motsi headlined a moonlight HIV testing organised by NAC at Muzarabani growth point.
The event included HIV testing and counselling, BP and diabetes check ups and condom distribution.

NAC district Aids coordinator for Muzarabani Richard Chasima said they had roped in Motsi in their intervention programmes.
“We are working with Mr Muzarabani in our programmes especially on moonlight testing events,” he said.
“Mr Muzarabani has also released a new song to fight stigma.
“We hope to take these moonlight programmes across the district, particularly in HIV hotspot communities, including farming areas.”
Motsi made his entrance on the mainstream music scene in 2020 with an album titled Kamukana followed by another album titled Dzorai Moyo in 2023.
This year he has released singles Chando (Happy Chete) and Hutano Hwangu (My Health My Pride).
