Former Zimbabwe and Premier Soccer League star Tendai Ndoro has suggested it was witchcraft that led to his serious illness that had many concerned about his health.
Ndoro arrived in South Africa in 2013 with Mpumalanga Black Aces after starring in the Cosafa Cup with the Warriors and Chicken Inn.
His prolific form earned him a move to Orlando Pirates before going on to have stints in Saudi Arabia with Al-Faisaly, Ajax Cape Town, Highlands Park and Al-Orouba in Oman.
However, back in 2021, there were major concerns about the striker as images of him surfaced on social media painting a bleak picture of his health and there were suggestions he even lost his eyesight.
“You know that moment [where the pictures surfaced] some things are spiritual, you can’t avoid it, when something just comes up on you, you will not be ready, you never know what’s going to happen in the next minute,” Ndoro said on the Bettor Podcast.
“I went back home just to visit… we can spend three days talking [about this], but when I went back home, just to relax and see the family, I was expecting a baby, so I went there to see the wife and the baby.
“When I arrived back home, I don’t know whether they were hitting each other [super natural things] we heard this guy is coming [with these things], there was a moment I couldn’t open my eyes and… I just told myself this is witchcraft.
“But I managed to get off such things. My intention was to go there to see my wife in the hospital to welcome the baby, but I couldn’t come back, spiritually I was attacked, I don’t know… I stayed there for like three to four months.”
