Kyadondo East MP, Robert Kyagulanyi, popularly known as Bobi wine has lashed out at the government for frustrating his income streams after cancelling his own concerts and now stopping the Galaxy FM annual Zzina Festival from going on at One Love Beach – the MP’s private facility was cancelled.

“I am doing music as may business because it is how I support my family. From how I see it, the government is working hard to make sure I run broke,” Wine said.

“The government stopped me from doing the Kyarenga Concert at Namboole Stadium, I took it to Busabala. But ever since, the police has been cancelling my other shows countrywide. Not even this one [Zzina Fest]  where I am not singing, it has been cancelled,” Bobi Wine added.
