Bobi Wine has finally spoken out on the demolition of his One Love beach.
On Friday, Bobi was left in melancholy after authorities from Mengo Royal Treasury (Nkuluze) descended on One Love beach with Graders and leveled part of it. This after Bobi Wine allegedly failed to heed to a directive from Mengo Royal Treasury to peacefully vacate the contested land.
Speaking about the demolitions, the “Time Bomb” singer revealed that he would never have expected such an injustice done to him after fully paying for the land. He posted:
“Apart from the main venue of One Love beach by the lakeside that we had acquired and developed into a beach for more than a decade now; in 2010, I bought another piece of land from the same office which I paid for FULLY and developed into a modern parking lot that we have been using since then. It should be noted that at the time of its purchase, that land was heavily occupied by Bibanja owners who I also paid/compensated FULLY and they vacated happily.
The demolitions and evictions that have been going on in Busabala were all tagged on my name yet they were being carried out by Mengo itself but they never came out to tell the public the truth,there by leaving me to face the hate of the people. I said nothing about the issue but I guess people should now know the truth. The injustice that has been done to me is the least that I would expect from the kingdom that I LOVE SO MUCH. I have invested all my youthful energy, earnings and time in this place that I had become so attached to. It is such a tough time for me and my family but like it has been said; “What doesn’t kill you, only makes you stronger”
