Famed singer Edirisa Musuuza alias Kenzo has added salt in the injury by supporting the controversial Sheila Gashumba argument of TV stations exploiting their presenters with 50K peanut salaries leading to the suffering of local artistes.

As the Luganda saying goes "Enjovu wezilwanira ebisubi byebibona bona", literally meaning "whenever elephants fight each other, its always the battle field that is exploited in one way or another," the Big Talent Music Group CEO believes enough is enough as the Lil Stunner shouldn't be castigated by critics and the media for bringing up an issue worth redress.

Kenzo has cited out some key reasons as to why he is in support of Sheila Gashumba's 50K peanut salary abolishment since them as musicians are always at the losing end in such incidents as TV presenters always squeeze them for money as a survival in exchange for airplay and sometimes take the matters to be personal to a few artistes who don't comply to their needs.

They are always abused, denied music airplay and taken on into useless rivalries no wonder the "Ssemyekozo" singer is advocating for a minimum wage for TV presenters and the entire media practitioners so as to solve the pending saga.

"Nze Nuwunya abantu bafe. Amazima gabaluma nyo ekisuse. Sandyagadde kwogera kunsonga Ya Sheira Gashumba naye mumulemedeko ate nga yayogera mazima. Instead of using the chance nemuteka ba Boss bamwe kuninga Babawe emisara ejiija muntuyo zamwe kubanga mukola nyo.

Awo temwalabye nti waliwo omulamwa ogubayamba abanji noo. Wabula muwoza kimu Sheira Gashumba ayagogera nga Ani!! Kati mbuza ayina okwogera yani era afanana atya? Mukirize mugane ensongaye erimu egumba.Oba yajirese buubi oba bulungi kasita erimu amazima.

Abantu bakola ku big media house's nga tebasasulwa kimala banji naye era kati awo omuyimbi yakafiramu. Abamu bazisabira nakumpewo ensonyi zagwawo. Omuntu akuvuma natakoma akwo nalwana nyo akusule mbu ensonga togaba sente. Naye nga dala eyo enkola ntufu bantu bange!!!

lwaki kiva kukasimo nefuka kataala/teeka? Enjovu wezirwanira obusubi bwebubonabona. Kati fe abayimbi twafuka busubi. Negotiations neba boss bamwe abamu batya nokubanja olwo artist yasasula anyway kankomawo. Temwambarira nze ate, omuyimbi yandibadde awayo akasimo eri abo basobodde nga bamuyambye Mungeri yona Naye maama kika. Banamawurire abamu bakiiza ku bwotampa sente nkuvuma hoooo Uganda zabu.

So ntesa nti mutekewo embera enambulukufu nga muyita mumateka kiyambe abana abato abagenda okuyingira media, other wise abamu bajja gagawala abalala bavuwale nyo. Let's use this debate tujemu ekirungi. GOD BLESS YOU ALL," said Eddy Kenzo through his social media Facebook official account.
