Yesterday, some musicians, comedians, actors and actresses, radio and TV personalities, members of the press were invited at Speke Resort Munyonyo to dine and wine with President Museveni.
It was from this same event that the musicians unveiled their song TUBONGA NAWE to show solidarity to the president.
However, this move by our musicians seems to have caused a lot of confusion on social media, as a section of public claim that artistes are very wrong to support President Museveni.
Today, Bebe Cool, who promised Museveni yesterday during the dinner to crash anyone who brings any disruption in support for Museveni is in trouble after today’s Facebook post.
Here is what Bebe Cool posted:
I want to thank all musicians,comedians, actors and actresses,radio and TV personalities,members of the press for the time they put in yesterday during the unveiling of the TUBONGA NAWE song.
One may wonder why TUBONGA NAWE.
The entertainment sector joined hands this time around to execute appreciation towards what is visible to our fellow Ugandans,the development of the entertainment industry of Uganda.This has been mainly because the present government(NRM) has put an environment that has favoured several businesses to grow.
Yesterday a musician/comedian was not a person to respect by our community but if u look today,we r totally respected in all aspects.There has been major growth of our sector in the last 25 years that we today compete beyond borders representing our country and carrying our flag high with pride.
Jobs have been created and many Ugandan youths have individually earned a permanent living.Our industry is now a major channel through which the government can earn taxes if it is organised and protected even more.
We as the entertainment sector organised this dinner to thank HE the president of Uganda YOWERI KAGUTA MUSEVENI for the contribution he has done to our country and to reassure him our support come 2016 campaigns. You may not have seen that specific artist u support during the function but not everyone one could be able to make it but all were represented faithfully.
Just like hotels,taxi drivers, business men,bodaboda men,farmers, teachers,doctors etc have for a long time invited and had meetings with HE,it was high time our fraternity did the same.
In my language Luganda they say,ENTASIMA EBULA AGIWA.
If u wanna be rich,dine with the rich
If u wanna be successful,dine with the successful
As they say birds of the same feathers.........
And lastly they say if u can't beat them,........
And don't forget u reap what u ........
Remember musicians r Ugandans n they too have a right to choose a political side and vote too.
Thank you your excellence YOWERI KAGUTA MUSEVENI and first lady mama JANET MUSEVENI for accepting our invitation.
But his post has not been welcomed by his fans…..and here are some of the comments as they attack Bebe Cool:
Walu Gyo let your name stay Bebe Cool not Bebe Fool....... am wondering if U would post this again if a police man undressed Zuena and no legal actions are taken
Kejjes Paul i'm very much a fan of yos...... but supporting that "imbecile" is a total turn off......, so u say if u want to be successful dine with the successful so it applies to dine with the "thieves", "sectarianism" , "dictatorship" just to be that
Tonney Waibaka you hv sold out our own country.........at a very cheap price forgetting that yo own sons and daughters en also yo grand kid will be liable and accountable for this............#bebe u made a wrong dicision to involve yo self in politiks,just immagine if you wakeup one morning wen de govt has changed where will you hide?..............

Meanwhile, we ask? Are artistes wrong to choose the candidates of their choice?
