Eddy Kenzo joins Muhoozi camp days after snubbing Bobi Wine at concert

KAMPALA, UGANDA: Ugandan Musician Edrisa Musuuza popularly known as Eddy Kenzo has reportedly agreed to join Team Muhoozi and will perform at the upcoming countrywide tours of the MK birthday party celebrations.

The development comes barely a week after the musician came into the spotlight for snubbing a handshake from his “mentor” Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine at a Zex Bilangilangi’s music concert in Kampala.

However, the big talent boss was later quoted saying that he snubbed Bobi Wine to avoid interference with his security detail over their political differences.

“He once said that he is not on our level, he has a huge security detail, and to speak to him you have to get permission from his bodyguards. I never wanted to interfere with his safety at the event so l left.” Kenzo explained after a video of the incident went viral.

It’s worth remembering that Bobi Wine is one of the people that played an important role in Kenzo’s rise to the music scene after giving him a chance to work at Fire Base where Kenzo recorded some of the songs that introduced him to the big stage.

Since 2020, the two have not seen eye to eye. Their beef dates back to when Kenzo accused Bobi Wine of hypocrisy and being mean. In the video that made headlines, Kenzo had also accused Bobi Wine of ignoring him by leaving his WhatsApp messages on read despite the two having been friends at the time.

Now a few days later, Kenzo was this week filmed in a video posing with some of the top members of Team Muhoozi led by chairman and Museveni’s younger brother, Micheal Nuwagira alias Toyota which according to reports, the singer was signed as one of the top performers during the team campaigns henceforth.

Hours after the meeting, Kenzo went on to perform at one of the functions hosted by the team in Kiruhura and heaped praise on Toyota and the First son throughout the performance.

Team Muhoozi is a team that comprises Lt Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba’s friends and well-wishers believed to be pushing the first son’s alleged presidential ambitions, through countrywide sports and entertainment campaigns.
