‘AFTER CHRISTIAN’S SURGERY DOCTORS DID NOT EXPECT HIM TO LIVE MORE THAN TWO YEARS’ LOVY LONGOMBA SHARES BROTHER’S LAST MOMENT

Lovy Longomba twin brother to the Late Christian has shared the last moments before his death. Lovy says Christian was energetic though in pain, “I never imagined I will have to do this anytime ever. This is the first time we have ever been separated; the separation is tough. We toured the world together, we spent 96 percent of our lives together.

Sometimes knowing things prophetically is not the best, on the day he was leaving God spoke to me and told me “Christian is Leaving today” I tried everything spiritually, physically and materially to keep him here but when God speaks there is nothing you can do about it its always for the better.

This hurts, even the last days Christian was laughing, he was very energetic, we were dancing, even in pain, he knew how to enjoy himself. Every morning I would go downstairs to check up on him and now I can’t do that anymore.”

He also said after his surgery six years ago, the doctors did not expect him to live more than two or three years, “The complications that Christian had were not from the tumor but what the tumor had done. When he had his surgery six and a half years ago, that’s when the damage of the tumor set in.

It wasn’t cancerous, it was malignant but was very big. By the time they took it out, the damage it had done in the brain was crazy. The doctors did not expect him to live more than two to three years but Christian outlive that by many years. I’m grateful that God gave me a partner I can go through life with.”

Speaking about their music career, Lovy says he did not want to sing but his brother persuaded him, “I would have never sung if it wasn’t for Christian, we come from a musical family but I was never going to do it. Christian made me do it, he was so passionate about it, my father and grandfather they all did music. Our first song Dondosa he wrote the whole thing and told me what part I was going to sing. We recorded twice with Lucas of Ogopa and we would walk to the studio.”
