ELVIS BOUNCED

UGANDA's SILK Events proprietor, Elvis Sekyanzi, got the shock of his life when he was bounced by Kayihura’s boys last Friday at Kyadondo Rugby Club during the Battle of the Champions’ concert. The tycoon, whose events company managed the concert, was checking the sound system and going around ensuring everything ran smoothly. But the Policemen blocked him from entering through one of the private access points and ordered him to use the main access area. He tried to explain that he was running the show and even showed them his identity card, but the mean-looking Policemen didn’t care, so he ended up taking the longer route.

UG GOV'T ASKED TO INCREASE BEBE'S SECURITY

Veteran politician and Peoples Progressive Party president Jaberi Bidandi Ssali, is worried about the safety of his son Bebe Cool.  Bidandi said that he wanted the Government to provide more security for the singer.
“When I look at things that have happened to my son since the start of the year, I cannot help but wonder what is really going on. I want the Government to provide meaningful and maximum security for my son,” demanded Bidandi. Bebe Cool was shot at in January at Efendy’s bar & resturant. Then he narrowly survived death when the car in which he was travelling with his wife, Zuena, overturned. Last month, Bebe Cool, who moves with crutches or in a wheel chair, was involved in a brawl in Sweden and last Sunday, he survived death by a whisker at Kyadondo Rugby Club, where two bombs went off during the World Cup final. It is probably against this background that Bidandi feels his son needs extra protection against this streak of bad luck.
