Zimdancehall star Takura Chiwoniso, popularly known as Blot in music circles, has been arrested for drug abuse. Blot was found using crystal meth, also known as Mutoriro, on Wednesday in a parked Toyota Corolla by police officers. A plastic bag containing some of the drugs was also recovered from the vehicle.
Harare provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Luckmore Chakanza, confirmed the arrest and urged people to continue exposing drug dealers and victims of illicit drugs in their communities.
“Police arrested an illicit drug abuse suspect in Sunningdale. The suspect is expected to appear in court soon,” said Insp Chakanza.
The Sunningdale community has expressed anger over the increase in youths abusing drugs.
“We are worried about the serious abuse of drugs taking place in Sunningdale, especially along Matiza Road and kuChimbarembare uko. Blot has been one of the users, and several youths’ lives have been ruined by mutoriro. We are appealing for a clean-up exercise to save our children,” said a resident.
Blot is known for his hit songs such as Ndiri Bad, Humbangu a, and Skelewu. He has collaborated with other Zimdancehall artists, such as Bounty Lisa and Ndunge Yut.
However, his career and reputation have been tarnished by his involvement in drug abuse, which has become a serious problem among many youths in Zimbabwe.
Crystal meth is a synthetic stimulant that can cause euphoria, paranoia, hallucinations, insomnia, psychosis, aggression, and addiction. It can also damage the brain, heart, lungs, and other organs.
