Singer cum businessman Banjo Man has spoken up on how he felt when his big brother, Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu alias Bobi Wine first opened up to him about his political ambitions.
Bobi Wine kickstarted his political career in 2017 and according to Banjo Man, he did not quite welcome the idea but just like all family members, he showed his utmost support for his brother.
He revealed that he had this discussion with Bobi Wine who in turn did not consider his advice because he is younger than him.
“He knows I’m always behind him and I told him that but it doesn’t stop me from advising him. I gave him my opinion and discussed how I felt but he first watered them down because I’m younger than him,” he said.
Banjo Man, once gave the music a shot but was not as successful as his brothers Bobi Wine, Mikie Wine, Eddie Yaweh, Dax Vibes, and Irene Kayemba. He decided to concentrate on the businesses that have built him his multi-million empire.

Unlike most of his siblings who have always openly rallied behind Bobi Wine in demanding change, Banjo Man says he has been showing his support in the background but following his path as an individual.
According to Banjo Man, one of the disadvantages of moving into his brother’s shadow is how netizens will accuse him of benefiting and using Bobi Wine’s political fame to get money.

“It is always good to also discover yourself, your potential as an individual, and your strength. You still support each other though.
The support might be invisible but you are there. Secondly, It hurts so bad to work so hard for yourself and build your life and someone comes out of the blue forging stories and tagging your sweat to something; like you do not deserve it,” he said.
