A source close to Tshabangu revealed that he was fine throughout the flight but started complaining of severe stomach pains when the plane landed. The illness, which was suspected to be food poisoning, escalated quickly.
“He was okay throughout the flight. The illness was sudden. Thanks to the efficient health system in this country, the situation was bad,” the source said.
The source also confirmed that Tshabangu never had a chance to attend the assembly, as his health deteriorated so much that he was admitted to the ICU at one point.
