Among the supporting artistes who performed at the event was Ronald Mayinja who excited the audience with his song titled, ‘Bizemu’
In his speech, President Museveni dismissed the message in Mayinja’s song ‘ ‘I disagree with one of the singers who was saying “Bizeemu”, as if to say that this NRM government is committing crimes against its people! ‘’ he said adding that the governments NRM replaced was the one killing people ‘ ‘so that is why we went to the bush and took over power,”
The president advised the artists to use their talents in ways that do not sow divisions based on lies. ‘‘The government of Uganda is working against all the threats and crimes against Uganda and her people.’’ The president said.
