The family and friends of fallen singer Moses Ssekibogo aka Mowzey Radio has finally got justice for their son and friend who passed on last year on February 1, 2018 at Case Clinic in Kampala.

Entebbe High Court Judge convicted Godfrey ‘Troy’ Wamala on Monday of manslaughter after he was found guilty of killing Radio. Prosecutions contended that Troy, on the night of January 22 outside De Bar night club in Entebbe descended on Radio and beat him up, inflicting severe injuries onto him that finally took his life on February 1, 2018.

Today morning, Justice Jane Abodo who presided over the court session gave her sentence to the convict. The sentence slapped to Troy for his charges is 13 years, three months and four days imprisonment.

Troy has survived life imprisonment as it is provided in the Penal Code because Justice Abodo considered the fact that he is a first time offender with a possibility to reform after the sentence.

“I have considered the fact that convict is a first offender, relatively young man capable of reforming but let temper get a better part of him and ended the life of a talented and youthful musician which was a horrible thing. I therefore sentence the convict to a term of 13 years, three months and four days,” Abodo said.

Radio’s soul can finally rest in peace now.
