Tanzanian Singeli artist Dulla Makabila has released a new video song titled “Furahi” that sparks speculation about a possible rift with his former spouse, Zailisa. The release coincides with Zailisa’s recent marriage to Haji Manara, the spokesperson for the Young Africans sports club.
“Furahi” seems to address the circumstances surrounding their separation. Dulla sings about Zailisa allegedly leaving him for a wealthier and more famous partner. The lyrics imply that Zailisa may have underestimated his potential due to his perceived financial standing.
The song takes a more personal turn as Dulla delves into private details of their marriage. He hints at past disagreements, including Zailisa’s supposed focus on trends and a lack of domestic skills. “Furahi” also carries advice for Zailisa, urging her to find stability and move on from chasing after men with greater perceived wealth.
The release of “Furahi” has divided fans. Some express sympathy for Dulla and commend his honesty about the situation. Others criticize him for publicly airing their private issues and potentially attacking Zailisa.
Undoubtedly, “Furahi” has become a major talking point, captivating fans of both Dulla Makabila and Zailisa. The song ignites discussions about themes of marriage, divorce, and infidelity within Tanzanian society.
Is “Furahi” justified? Should Dulla Makabila have addressed their marital problems through music?
