Eddy Kenzo, the president of the Uganda National Musicians Federation, has firmly expressed his support for fellow Ugandan artist Beenie Gunter, who recently faced legal issues in Abu Dhabi. In a sincere social media message, Kenzo disclosed his commitment to securing Beenie Gunter's release and ensuring that justice is served.
Having already reached out to H.E. Zaake W. Kibedi, the Ambassador of the Republic of Uganda to the United Arab Emirates, Eddy Kenzo conveyed his dedication to promptly resolving the issue.
In his capacity as the President of the Federation, Kenzo is determined to secure the release of his fellow artist from custody and ensure that those allegedly responsible for the crimes are held accountable.
Crescent Baguma, widely known as Beenie Gunter, faced arrest at a Dubai airport as he endeavored to return to Uganda accompanied by his baby mama and girlfriend, Nickie Berry.
The arrest stemmed from a conflict among music promoters that escalated into a physical altercation, resulting in property damage. Subsequently, the singer was moved to Abu Dhabi and accused of his role in the brawl.
The incident transpired on January 8th, 2024, during Beenie Gunter's scheduled performances in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
Eddy Kenzo called for unity among fellow artists, underscored the importance of vigilance to avert similar incidents in the future, and advocated for solidarity within the artistic community.
