A video clip depicting singer Weasel Manizo under the influence of an unidentified substance has caused a stir on social media, with Mc Kats being the most recent to react to it.
Various entertainment industry players, have voiced their disapproval and called for action.
While responding to Martha Kay’s post on X, Kats revealed that the Uganda National Musicians Federation (UNMF), headed by Eddy Kenzo, received substantial money to help the industry.
He suggested that this money should be used to establish rehabilitation centers to assist musicians struggling with drug addiction.
However, to Kats’ disappointment, the federation members have utilized over 13 billion shillings to acquire properties and other non-relevant items.
MC Kats emphasized that the most valuable contribution to the industry would have been establishing a rehabilitation center.
