Ugandan music star and Grammy-nominated artist Eddy Kenzo has praised President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, calling him “the fountain of honor” and “the wisest man” he has ever met. In a public statement, Kenzo attributed much of his personal and professional success to the stability Museveni’s leadership has brought to the country.
“Being near President Museveni has been my blessing in life,” Kenzo said. “The time I met him, I had earned a lot. That’s why I am in NRM.”
Kenzo revealed that he once asked the president why he had ruled Uganda for so long, and Museveni reportedly replied, “My long leadership is your blessing; that’s why you are the senior advisor on creatives.” Kenzo currently serves as a presidential advisor on issues related to the creative arts industry.
Highlighting Museveni’s legacy, Kenzo pointed to the population growth from 13 million people in earlier years to over 30 million today. “This is something we must celebrate. I am a product of his stability. I was born when he was leader and started singing when he was president. My child has grown up without hearing bullets.”
In a veiled criticism of opposition leader Bobi Wine, Kenzo dismissed the claim that “Uganda is bleeding,” pointing out that Bobi Wine himself owns land worth Shs600 million in Butambala, all acquired under Museveni’s regime. “Many artists outside Uganda want to be like Bobi Wine, but they can’t because of civil wars in their countries.”
Kenzo also condemned the use of phrases like “protest vote,” arguing they promote unrest. “Protest vote means voters should riot if NUP doesn’t get what they want. That’s why I left NUP. It has its own goals that I didn’t see as important.”
Defending Museveni’s administration against accusations of land grabbing, Kenzo said, “When you hear about land grabbing, does Museveni sign that paper? No, it’s the LC5 chairpersons you voted for.”
He concluded by urging Ugandans to protect the gains made under Museveni, referencing national achievements such as Grammy nominations, golden medals, and platforms like BTM Television as part of the creative sector’s growth under the current government.
