L’vovo hospitalised after suffering a minor stroke during his performance, SA reacts: “Is it a coincidence”

Briefly News previously reported that L'vovo was rushed to hospital after suffering a stroke on stage.

Derrango Records shared a statement after the musician suffered a minor stroke during his performance at Indwedwe in December last year. The label confirmed on social media that the multi-award-winning artist was rushed to the hospital after the incident.

The record label also asked Mzansi to put the musician in their prayers. Many people took to the comments section to react, asking if it was a coincidence that two big Durban artists suffered from a stroke at about the same time. One social media user said it cannot be a coincidence and the police must investigate, adding that these musicians suffered from the same thing at the same time but people are acting like it was an isolated incident.
