Here is some good news at a time when all we are being bombarded with is doom and gloom.

Diamond Platnumz Manager Sallam SK Mendez has announced that he has tested negative for the coronavirus.

Taking to his social media, an excited Sallam told his fans,

“After 14 days got tested twice and both results came back negative and now am out of Isolation Centre. Thanks to Allah, Thanks to Doctors, Nurses and the government."

Sallam becomes the second person to recover from coronavirus in Tanzania.

In the same post he added,

“Nimshukuru Allah 🙏🏽 na pia niwashukuru wote mlionitumia msg, comments, DM na dua zenu. Bila kuwasahau Temeke Isolation Centre kwa kuwa bega na bega pamoja na mie bila kunichoka pale nilipokuwa nimezidiwa, na shukurani zangu zingine ziende kwa Madaktari bingwa kujua maendeleo yangu mara kwa mara na pia Serikali yangu na viongozi wake husika Wizara na Mkoa walikuwa hawana ubaguzi kutujulia hali na kutupa moyo na kutupa mahitaji tutakayo."

Advising his fans and followers, Sallam explained,

"Naomba niwape taarifa ndugu yenu, kijana wenu nimechukuliwa vipimo mara mbili na nimekutwa NEGATIVE na kwa sasa nipo huru. Ila naomba tuendelee kujikinga na kufata ushauri wa viongozi wetu na kuacha maelekezo ya utashi yasiyokuwa na uhakika. ALLAH IS GREAT 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽”
