Kampala, (UG):- Ugandan sensational Lugaflow Rapper Gravity Omutujju real name Gereson Wabuyi is in deep mourning following the sudden death of his mother, Ms Jane Kajoina.
Gravity confirmed in a social media post that his mother had breathed her last today, Friday, October 18, leaving the rapper and his family in an unconsolable state.
The late Kajoina has been supportive of her son’s music career and has over the years attended his annual concerts.
For example; in 2022, during Gravity Omutujju’s sold-out concert, dubbed Okwepicha, at Lugogo Cricket Oval in Kampala, his mother, Jane Kajoina, paid a glowing tribute to her son.
At the concert, held on October 1 which she attended, Kajoina said: “My son is good. He is a hustler because there are places that he goes to and I also respect him. Had I ever been here? He even goes abroad. I wonder how he has been able to establish all these connections at his age… because he doesn’t do these shows alone. He does them with other people.”
Ms Kajoina also told the media that she didn’t mind her son’s nickname. “… that’s music life,” she said.
Asked if she could have predicted her son would grow up to become a singer, she said: “I didn’t know [he would become a musician]. I thought he would be like any other kid. He played football and broke his leg at Old Kampala. He started singing at a young age. He was 17.”
“I’m proud of him, he makes us happy, he has friends, and fans are here supporting him. He comes and visits me, and he is the one who invited me here. I stay in Fort Portal. He gave me transport and I came. He told me, ‘Mum, come and watch the show and see the musicians.”
Details surrounding Ms Kajoina’s death were still scanty by press time with the burial arrangements too, yet to be revealed by the bereaved family.
