Maddox Ssematimba live in concert

Reggae star Maddox Ssematimba is holding a live music concert today at Sheraton Hotel Gardens in Kampalan where he will take all reggae and good music lovers into a musical bliss. This is the first time that the reggae veteran (he said the legend title doesn’t suit him) is holding his own concert in Uganda.

If you groove to Nakatudde, or you have a Namagembe, don’t be shy (Wansonyi). Let her know that she is your All time Lover, take her to this concert that will show her why Kampala is the best city for partiers. The concert is probably already on.
