The "Sitya loss" fame Singer Eddie Kenzo was drawn in a fight climaxed by serious exchange of fists with a journalist attached to Dembe FM-Isaac Katende alias Kasuku Kuku Wazabanga.
It all happened when Kasuku uttered allegations that were not taken in good faith by the singer who hoick him to his feet and sent him a couple of Mayweather like-jabs before he fumed out of the venue.
This all happened at a press conference that was organised by Kenzo at centenary park (Laftaz comedy lounge) yesterday morning (Thursday)
Eddie Kenzo who had called the press to announce preparations for his Sitya Loss Nice and Lovely concert that is slated for 19th September at Kati Kati grounds, started by telling off the media and journalists for writing negative news about artistes hence sickly sweet their chances to shine on the world stage.
“If you want us to represent you worldwide, why don’t you stop the negativity?” Kenzo said, adding:” The press people have always written about me not knowing English but have moved to over 20 countries overseas representing Uganda, where are the artistes who know English? They have also reported about me being gay which is not true.”
“I never went to school but have learnt English from the people that I associate with, you should at least be thankful that I can express myself in English." Kenzo scoffed.
Events would have gone as planned had Dembe Fm presenter desisted from taking the floor to hurl a number of observations as well as questions.
“I will say this on behalf of my fellow journalists; you musicians will not criticize our work. For the past one year, Ugandan media has been writing good stuff about you (Kenzo) but you can’t accept. When I go to the club and find Dr Jose Chameleon drunk and helplessly down on the floor, why would I go back and write that I found chameleon standing.
Kasuku went ahead and said that: "The press conference was announced to start at 10:30, when we reached here, the place was empty; Kenzo came at midday and still sat aside. He then expects us to write what we didn’t observe?"
Kasuku then swtiched Eddy Kenzo's "anger lights" on by stating that in 2011 when he was still working for Star TV on the Kasuku live show, Eddie Kenzo paid him (Kasuku) not to play songs of another artist- Big Eye
