Ugandan singer Winnie Nwagi has once again made it clear that she will not tolerate disrespectful behaviour from fans at her shows — even if it means losing some of her audience.
In a bold and unapologetic statement during a recent interview, Nwagi expressed her stance on maintaining discipline among her supporters. She emphasized that she’s perfectly fine with a shrinking fan base if it helps rid her concerts of unruly individuals.
“I want a disciplined fan base,” Nwagi said. “If there are a few indisciplined individuals within my fan base, I will always sort them like you sort rice and remove the stones and dump them on the side. If the fan base must be indisciplined, then I don’t want them.”
The “Fire Baby” singer, known for her fierce personality and outspoken nature, warned fans against inappropriate behavior, especially physical contact during performances.
“You can’t come to a show and trigger me and expect me to act nice. How did they raise y’all? Were you raised to touch our thighs when we are on stage? Do that to the prostitutes on the streets. I don’t like it, let it sink into your heads.”
Her comments come in the wake of several past incidents where she’s physically confronted revellers who crossed the line. While critics have questioned her approach, Nwagi insists that mutual respect is non-negotiable.
“If you want your artists to be disciplined, you too have to be disciplined,” she added.
Despite the backlash, Nwagi continues to stand firm in her demand for decency and respect at her shows — making it clear that she values dignity over popularity.
