Uganda politician, Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu, popularly known as Bobi Wine has said COVID-19 is not the real reason why Nigerian singer, Omah Lay was arrested.
Eko Hot Blog had reported that Omah Lay and Tems were arrested and locked in Uganda prison for flouting COVID-19 order.
Following their arrest, there has been several reactions from Nigerian celebrities and the government demanding their release.
But Bobiwine reacting on his Twitter page, stated that the singer was actually arrested owing to an ‘act of shame by a corrupt regime with double standards.’
The serving Member of Parliament for Kyadondo County East constituency in Wakiso District, in Uganda’s Central Region queried Omah Lay’s arrest, stressing that the singer had police protection during the concert.
“Truth is #OmahLay’s arrest isn’t about COVID. No! It’s an act of shame by a corrupt regime that operates on double standards.
“He obtained a work permit and performed under police protection! Why arrest him? This is as pro-Museveni artists stage street concerts unmolested!” he tweeted.
