The discussion began when Marion Trish Mutesi, who identifies herself as an actress, writer, and journalist, took to X (formerly Twitter) to criticize Minister Phiona Nyamutoro. Mutesi expressed her disapproval of Nyamutoro for serving juice to her fiancé, Eddy Kenzo, and his guest, Alien Skin.
Mutesi’s post read: “I really pity some women. How on earth can a whole minister and well-spoken woman like Nyamutoro wake up one day, marry an uneducated man, and also go ahead and serve him? Like how? These things we shouldn’t allow as women. No, no.”
In response, Godfrey Kuteesa, known for his outspoken views on marriage, fired back with a strong rebuttal.
He wrote: “OLI MUTUMBAAVU NNYO!! This is why you will continue to struggle in life!! How can an unmarried woman criticize a wife for serving her husband? In your entire clan, no one has ever been married, let alone introduced, and you’re here throwing pity at an accomplished woman who is happily serving her husband??
“Where do girls like you get the audacity to attack marriage and its privileges? What does education have to do with marriage? You are very ignorant. Let this be the last time you make such comments on a married woman!! Don’t ever do it again!! Good job, Mrs. Musuuza.”
Faridah Nakazibwe also weighed in on Kuteesa’s post, adding: “If serving juice is being cheap, then those of us who trim our husbands’ toenails must be very cheap.”
As of now, Phiona Nyamutoro and Eddy Kenzo have not publicly addressed the issue.
