After almost all top guns in the Ugandan music industry dining with the president, singer Maurice Kirya came out to bash them saying they had potentially failed to utilize the opportunity to benefit the music industry. He said that instead of fronting issues that would help the industry as a whole, they settled for handouts from the president. However this did not go well with other musicians who attended the dinner.
Bebe Cool responded: “I wish to remind, correct, and guide my fellow musicians/fans who have totally gone wrong on the issue of president YOWERI KAGUTA MUSEVENI dining with artists and not talking about copyright. The invitation cards were very clear. YOU R INVITED TO THE TUBONGA NAWE EXPERIENCE not to the copyright law dinner.”
Chameleone too seemed to respond to the singer by posting: “After a Great Dinner with the His Excellency President of Uganda, Gone to Tanzania for my CCM obligations. Never let people customize you in their interests. Its life so do what makes you happy”
Maurice Kirya is yet to respond back.
