“In all our silence, a foreigner had a concert in this country and actually filled up a concert where there was no social distancing, there were no masks and this idiot even posted it online and was very proud about the fact that he had a successful concert in Uganda… I don’t agree with this. It’s not fair, it is not right by any standards that you look at it,” she said.
Following her remarks, fans hit out at her, but she remains unbothered and insists thatOmah Lay shouldn’t have held the concert.
"Nobody has the right to come to my country and encourage the spread of corona no matter who you think you are. People are dying every day and if you have any respect for human life you will stay home or sanitize and wear a mask in a crowded place. May all your curses and evil spells return to you in Jesus name Amen," Cindy posted.
