Former Masaka city tycoon Emmanuel Lwasa’s financial downfall has become a subject of public ridicule after his ex-wife, Angel Kwakunda, took to TikTok to mock his plea for financial assistance. Lwasa, who once enjoyed wealth and prominence, recently declared bankruptcy, attributing his financial woes to business failures and mounting debts.
The marriage between Lwasa and Angel, although brief, was marked by numerous controversies, both in the public eye and behind closed doors. Lwasa’s previous relationship with television presenter Diana Nabatanzi, which spanned five years, was a recurring topic during their short-lived union, hinting at unresolved emotional turmoil.
Lwasa’s admission of financial insolvency came as a shock to many, as he confessed to losing all his businesses to creditors, forcing banks to auction off his properties to recoup outstanding loans. In a desperate plea for assistance, Lwasa turned to the government and philanthropist Bryan White for help, only to find himself the subject of ridicule by his ex-wife.
Angel’s TikTok video, imitating Lwasa’s appeal for financial aid, highlights the public spectacle surrounding their former lavish lifestyle, now marred by financial ruin. The irony of their once-shared extravagance being replaced by public mockery underscores the tumultuous nature of their relationship.
Adding to the drama, Lwasa’s uncertainty regarding the paternity of Angel’s child further fuels the animosity between the former spouses. Their history, marked by frequent conflicts, provides context for Angel’s mockery of Lwasa’s financial downfall.
