Mpaka records boss and singer Wycliff Tugume alias Ykee Benda is Ugx 1M richer after Azawi kept her word and fulfilled her promise following Arsenal's 1-0 win over Manchester United.
On Sunday, May 12, Arsenal the Gunners completed a double win over Erik Ten Hag's men at Old Trafford.
Leandro Trossard's first half goal was enough to see Arteta's side gun down the red devils and leapfrog Manchester City from the top of English premier League table.
The in-form Belgian finished first time from close range for his 17th of the season, and Arsenal's 89th in the Premier League this season.
Before the match started, singer Azawi, real name Priscilla Zawedde took to her X formerly known as Twitter account and pledged to give out 1 million shillings to fellow singer Ykee Benda in case United loses to Arsenal.
The two musicians spent the entire week taunting each other about how either of their teams would walk away with the win.
In order to put their debate to bed, they decided to place a bet of one million shillings. In the end, it was the Farma singer who emerged as the lion in the Jungle.
The 90th minute whistle was blown when the Gunners are winers and this meant that Ykee Benda is a million shillings richer.
Azawi on the other hand didn’t waste time and made sure to honor her pledge. As soon as the game ended, Azawi deposited her bet onto Ykee Benda’s money. The Mpaka Records boss posted a screenshot of the mobile money message from the Masavu singer.
“Ladies and gentlemen @AzawiOfficial has showed real sportsmanship…. @Ugaboysafrica, Pliz learn from her ….munsasule,” he tweeted.
Nevertheless, several Ugandan celebrities promised many things in regards to this game. Singer Bruno K said that he would hop like a frog from City Square to Busega.
For instance, Comedian Reign said that he would do general cleaning at the NUP headquarters for a week if Arsenal beat Man U.
And just after the final whistle, Mp Zaake Francis Mutebi took to his socials to remind the comedian of the pledge.
Arsenal1-oManU? Ssebo REIGN enkya ku subuhi kwangala ku kitebbe kya National Unity Platform osasule abalogosa oba okyekwatilemu?," he posted.
KFM K-Drive co-presenter Emeka had promised to do the Monday program in his wife’s heels if the Red Devils beat the Gunners. Hope those who lost their bets will honor their pledges.
