Can you imagine the president of the country offered to help me- Ray C

Singer Ray C has opened up on celebrating three years of being drug free.

The singer went to rehab after former Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete funded the total cost of taking her abroad for medication.

Ray C spoke to Couture Africa and said that the president coming out to help her made her really fight for her life as much as she had given up.

“I was at a point where I was done with life and contemplating suicide but I could hear a voice say ‘I am not done with you. I will bring along people to help you and lift you up. People you cannot imagine.’ Sure enough, I did get those calls from people urging me on. Telling me not to quit; my mum, Kikwete. Can you imagine the president of the country offering to help you? It was God telling me I am important, that this is not you and that you have to get better. So I felt if people of that calibre can think of me and want to help me, who am I not to want to help myself?”

Back to normal

Now that she’s back to her normal self, the singer promised to give her fans and family her best as a new person.

“Today, I look back and see all I have done and gone through and I am still here. God is not done with me. I have so much to give to my family, my fans who support me and healed with me. They are real and they are like my family” she said.
