Yet when you do it for musicians from outside Uganda, they appreciate, comment, share, and sometimes even give you extra support after the challenge.Here, we don’t support each other.Arsenal celebrations in Uganda banned over Ebola spreadKavuma also revealed how the Triplets Ghetto Kids ended up working with Colombian singer Shakira on a project.
