ZIMBABWE – NORTON – Sam Mtukudzi, the son of musician Oliver Mtukudzi is playing “under covers” with his manager.
zimGossip understands that the two have been ’seeing’ each other for some time. However, his manager cum girlfriend Ropafadzo Vhiriri is becoming “big headed” and the young Tuku is looking for ways to dump her.
Sources close to the development revealed that Mtukudzi was considering dumping his manageress due to a chain of disputes involving their professional and personal relationships.
“It has not been well for Sam and Ropa for the past couple of months. Tension is mounting at the workplace because the musician is trying to avoid his manageress.
“If she was not the band manager, the relationship could have ended already but professional contractual obligations are making it difficult for Sam to dump her,” said a source.
The lovebirds used to spend a lot of their spare time together but most of their meetings were now reserved for business. Last week while still in England with his father, Sam said his relationship with Vhiriri had ended sometime ago.
“It is over between us. I do not remember the exact dates it happened but we separated. She is still my manageress and we have no problem working together,” Mtukudzi said.
But Vhiriri said she was still in love with Mtukudzi although they were having problems.
“We did not separate as such. We are having problems but I think things will be fine soon,” Vhiriri said.
“It is common to have problems in a relationship or even to separate. The good thing is that those problems have not affected our working relationship.”
Vhiriri must have confronted Mtukudzi on the issue when they met for a show later because they phoned this writer as they were together and the musician fumed.

He said work & sexual relationships don’t mix & that musicians have no business singing about politics…., is he a man or rather boy of his word?
It’s a good lesson for him that you can mix business with pleasure to an extent but it should have it’s own limits

Ropa, I leave next door to you. Why do you ruin your life like that. One lesson I told you if you remember; When you become a celebrity, watch out for bad/negative publicity and when that happens, be careful to lose your good and bad life. It would be rather better to lose the bad life by using the good life to destroy the bad. At the same time both of you can take the opportunity to polish your bad side through this negativity.
REMEMBER – BAD NEWS IS GOOD CONSUMPTION TO PUBLIC. PAWAKABATSIRA PAYE HAPANA KANA ACHARANGARIRA..SO BAD IT IS.
