Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT |  The Entebbe Town Clerk has written an angry letter to the manager of De Bar, where Ugandan musician Moses Ssekibogo aka Mowzey Radio of the Goodlyfe Crew was assaulted after an altercation at the pub.

“Following the gruesome incident of recent, that has led to the death of one of our top musicians aka Mozey Radio that happened in your bar, council within the powers versted in it to regulate and control businesses within her area of jurisdiction, has closed your bar with immediate effect,” the Town Clerk said in a statement.

  3. May his soul be judged mercefully

    • Why always in the #BAR
      There’s something behind that and #SAMBYA_HOSPITAL

      • The bars are the easiest areas where the homicide criminals easily catch their pray under the disguise of under the influence of drugs and alcohol, but yet they soba about wat they are doing. The so called security in the bars are doing the a active murdering and are let go. No security training to the so called security personnels.

  4. May your soul rest in peace, You will be missed a lot my King.

  5. Closing the Bra minus the so called musicians controlling their fights and anger will never help, many will still fight and will die, what with the Drugs they use!

  7. Its too bad we have lost a #top musician in Africa and world wide ..but my advise is that let the musician stop using drugs #kayaga or #Muti that impacts them to feel like they can fight or do anything
    And also …let bars learn from this situation how to control people n the bar , people in bars drunk and they start doing weird things so the bouncers should decrease on how they handle customers ..like me I have abeef on one of the bouncers at casablanka in kororo called #musa who use to box people found idle in the bar ….ts not that everyone in the bar drinks ..so let them learn from this other wise mob bars will be closed
    ….thanxs guys

    • Umar, those so called bouncers are the criminals hired to kill rivals. No bouncer has been put in the media as having been tried at taken for rehabilitation. It is our rotten policy on security and justice that is responsible for such deaths
