“It’s been a very long journey ever since I knew my status.

“I’ve lived for more than two decades with the virus,” she said.

“This has never let me feel like giving up on life.

“But it has made me take the opportunity to influence people to know about this disease.”

“Every time I meet people who say bad things, I take that as an opportunity to correct them.

“That’s how people are taught,” she said.

“More often than not, it’s merely because they’re uninformed.

“As people who live with the virus, we should always use that as an opportunity to correct and teach them.”

“When you personalize the risk of HIV infection, you begin to look in your area of service and in your area of influence,” she told the People’s Paper.

“If you’re that person who can advocate for people to have cheaper medicine, that’s your space.”

 

Criselda Dudumashe has opened up about being stalked by man who claimed to be her long-lost son, Sunday World reports.

According to the tabloid, Criselda said it was difficult for her to bolster her security because her work involves working and interacting with people as a public figure.

In June last year, the SA FM presenter reportedly opened a criminal complaints of intimidation, harassment and defamation of character at the Midrand police station after she claimed that the man was threatening to show up at her home unannounced.

The man had been harassing her with numerous “please call me” SMSes and late-night calls.

Criselda added that the man also sent her messages asking for the identity of his father because he claimed she had abandoned him when he was a kid.

“But I’m now careful about being too friendly to a person I don’t know,” Criselda said.

Criselda Dudumashe faced the worst ordeal when people took to social media to talk about how bad a person she is. This was earlier this year when she commented about the former Deputy Minister of Higher Education Mduduzi Manana’s character.

The TV personality seemed to defend Mduduzi, days after it emerged he had assaulted a woman.

She later apologized for the incident.

Suffering

Her biggest pain however, was seeing others turn on her.

“For me the most painful experience of the whole thing was watching people who were supposed to be close to me‚ those who were my colleagues‚ those who were my friends‚ taking to social media to talk about what a horrible person I am. That cracked me. It is one thing to go with the trend‚ go with the hype‚ but you are supposed to know me‚” she said.

Criselda was removed from her Metro FM show “until further notice”. She also rejected a nomination to be a board member of the SA National Aids Trust (SANAT) over the backlash.
