Nigerian Superstar Tems is taking a break from music after being diagnosed with Reflux Laryngitis.
The Singer and Songwriter made the revelation on Twitter saying that due to her diagnosis, she has postponed her upcoming shows in line with the Doctor’s directive.
Reflux Laryngitis is a condition that occurs when acid or other chemicals come up from the stomach into the back of the throat causing irritation. This usually happens at night when one is asleep. This condition is also known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), acid reflux, and chronic laryngitis.
“It breaks my heart to say this, but there’s no other option for me. I’m not feeling too good at the moment.
“After my last performance, I was diagnosed with Reflux laryngitis and I have to take some time off to protect what’s left of my voice,” said Tems.
“On the doctor’s orders, I have to postpone the two shows this week- the Birmingham show on the 15th June and the first London show on July 17th,” she continued.
Tems, known to fans as “Temsbaby”, has apologized to fans, adding that new dates for both shows will be announced soon.
“All tickets are still valid! Again I am so sorry. I am so sorry for this inconvenience but I promise to be back better than ever by the grace of God. Then I’ll give you the best show.
“Appreciate you all for understanding. You mean the world to me,” Tems concluded.
