It was a beautiful night at the London O2 when musician turned politician Bobi Wine performed over the weekend. After many years away from the stage following the restrictions he received from the Government, Bobi Wine stepped on stage in glamour. Bobi Wine was banned from performing in Uganda in 2018 for making political statements during his shows.
With a lot of vigor, he gave his fans in London he best performance anyone could ever ask for.
One may think that his fans were totally over him now that he has been given a chance to perform on stage in the diaspora. You are quite wrong. Being a people’s beloved, Bobi Wine who happened to also be referred to as the Gladiator seems to have scratched the souls of his fans. Instead of having enough of him, they are demanding for him now more than ever!
His electric performance left those in the diaspora crying for more. It is even worse here in Uganda for those that did not even get a chance to see him performing at his Return of the Gladiator concert in London. Bobi Wine's fans in Uganda now want to see him on stage in his Country as well.
Following the online questions from netizens about whether it would be possible to see Bobi Wine return to the stage in Uganda, , NTV's Sammy Wetala took it upon himself to ask the Uganda National Musicians' Federation President Eddy Kenzo during an interview whether it would be possible to get Bobi Wine back on stage in Uganda as per the demands of his fans in the Country.
Kenzo, despite his leadership stated that this is so out of his control that he can not even see it happening. According to Eddy Kenzo, he believes Bobi Wine's issue is beyond music considering the fact that he is a politician who is fighting to overthrow the government, which is why he got a ban to perform in Uganda in the first place.
Eddy Kenzo stated that as the UNMF President, his role is to fight for the rights of musicians but not get himself involved in the politics of the Country, yet Bobi Wine is involved in the Politics of Uganda.

"Bobi Wine wants to become the president of this country, and his ban on performing in Uganda as a musician is beyond my control. I'm simply here to fight for musicians, and I'm not a politician," Eddy Kenzo said.
