Saarbrucken based Ugandan singer, model and actress Yvonne Starr has added salt to an injury reviving the Sheila Gashumba undr payment debate that was a hot topic earlier this week. Yvonne who before singing was a model based in Tanzania also shared her experience where she disclosed how she once rejected a 15M Centenary bank deal to appear on billboads as a model because she was paid way more in Tanzania and Europe.
Sheila Gashumba earlier revealed how she used to earn just Shs50k per show while still presenting on The Style Project show on NTV Uganda. Yvonne Starr’s concern however is that not only do other countries pay better but also men are paid way more in Uganda to execute similar tasks. Yvonne Starr therefore believes that Gashumba’s point is a broad one that needs a serious debate.
“I think Sheilah Gashumba raised a topic that is affecting almost every Ugandan not only TV presenters, however it’s a broad topic that needs a serious debate. Another thing also to consider is equal pay for equal work.”
Yvonne is currently living in Saarbrucken, Germany and over a month ago, she prophesied that COVID-19 will be no more by 29th May 2020. We still await to see if her prophesy will turn out true.
