A group of Banyankole youths have resolved to beat up musician Sheebah for misusing their language. The youths have said that they are offended by Sheebah’s use of the Runyankole language especially in her song called Twesana.
“How can she use a word called “Tweshanana” in her lyrics and claim that it is a Runyankole word? These are the people who are misusing and spoiling our language,” said one of the youths.
An entertainment TV presenter also chipped in and expressed her disappointment in Sheebah for not doing enough research. “This shows how shallow Sheebah’s research is. When you wake up and want to sing in a particular language make sure people don’t get offended” said a TV presenter.
We will keep you posted.
