In a recent interview, singer Eddy Kenzo confirmed that his relationship with Bobi Wine has ended. “Me and him, we are done because he doesn’t need me. If he needed us, we would be together,” Kenzo stated candidly.
He emphasized his stand by saying, “If anyone wants to cut ties with me because I no longer support Bobi Wine, go ahead. But no one will intimidate me. I am a peace-loving Ugandan, and I know leadership will change when God wills it, but I will not tell anyone to go and riot.”
Kenzo took the opportunity to address broader issues within the music industry and the nation at large. “Most musicians are timid, but it’s not just about artists. This country has over 40 million people; let everyone do what they can afford,” he remarked. This comment reflects his frustration with the perceived silence of many artists on critical national issues such as corruption and human rights abuses.
Currently, Kenzo is aligning himself with the ruling NRM party and is engaged to Hon. Phiona Nyamutoro, the Minister of Energy. As he navigates these changes, Kenzo’s reflections on leadership and the role of artists in societal issues offer a provocative glimpse into the evolving landscape of Ugandan public figures.
