Gilbert Bukenya made these revelations while attending Spice Diana’s recently concluded show at Lugogo Cricket Oval. According to the ex-Vice President, he could not fail to support Spice Diana because she is a close friend of his.
Gilbert Bukenya made these comments at the concert venue while being interviewed by urban television. The rift between music and politics does not come into play when Gilbert Bukenya’s name is brought up since he has always blurred the lines.
The man who was once the country’s second in command has always taken his partying seriously when outside office premises.
Bukenya further added that when Spice Diana is paid to perform at his hotel, she does not disappear after singing for only fifteen minutes, like other artistes, that he has since categorized as thugs. According to Bukenya, he supports such a mentality.
Bukenya notes that there are artistes he pays over 5 million shillings, only to be shocked when they perform for 10 minutes before disappearing. He notes that when Spice is paid, she sings and fulfills the entire terms of the agreement.
He says that naysayers who want to start a smear campaign against the action are backward, and do not know anything about life.
When asked why he was a no show at Sheebah’s concert, Bukenya responded, noting that Spice Diana’s concert is levels ahead.
According to Bukenya, even if Sheebah’s concert was a two day fete, even Spice could pulled off a similar fete if she decided to. According to Bukenya, he has been everywhere around the world, but has never seen a concert as fantastic as Spice’s.
