Ugandan media personality and YouTuber Isaac Daniel Katende, commonly known as Kasuku, has revealed that his popular TikTok account @Kasuku256 was hacked on Friday night.
The account, which has over 706,000 followers, is currently inaccessible as Kasuku works to regain control of it.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Kasuku Live, the outspoken content creator told his followers that he is still trying to recover the account.
“My TikTok account was hacked on Friday night. I’m currently working on getting it back. I’m yet to find out how it was hacked because I can no longer access it, but I will be back soon,” Kasuku said.
The incident comes at a time when several Ugandan content creators have reported similar challenges. Recently, blogger Kookie Promotions also lost access to his TikTok account @kookiepro_.
