The body I have right now is the body that I have loved – Wema Sepetu responds

Popular Tanzanian actress, Wema Sepetu has hit the headlines for her massive weight loss that saw her confess she is HIV positive.

Just last week, during her brother´s funeral, she stepped out looking pretty frail and worrying, to masses.

A fan was quick to ask whether she is a HIV victim and Wema shouted:

Nina Ukimwi. [Yes, I have HIV/AIDS.]

Clarification

However, in a recent press conference, the Miss Tanzania 2006 revealed that she has no ailment or condition but she just loves her current body size.

I am very fit. I do not have any disease. The body I have right now is the body that I have loved. People started knowing me while I was petite then added weight and when that happened, people spoke a lot.

The award-winning actress, back in 2006 – when she bagged her crown home – was at 59 kgs.

She then hit 109 kgs, and masses trolled her for the weight gain, which was also messing up with her modelling career.

I used a lot of things. I was desperate because my weight was also affecting my career. I took medicine, I starved myself, I dieted for about a year and some months.

Then people shut up and took her as she was.

She now believes it will just be a matter of time before the masses get used to her current body size as well.

However, speaking in regard to her ´HIV/AIDS´ comment, Wema said she was prompted by the fan and she responded angrily.

Fans sometimes make us angry. So I read a comment that angered me and I was agitated. At the end of the day, I´m a human being, I have feelings. If you want to diss me, it´s okay as long as I am happy.

Bongo sensation, Ommy Dimpoz has also shown concern regarding Wema´s body weight which is not just slender, but disturbingly so.
