Singer Moses Ssali commonly known as Bebe cool has urged politicians and all the famous artists to use their names to help but not to mislead thousands of Ugandans who are desperately in need of help.
He said his main focus is to help out Ugandans not giving them fake promises like some politicians.
He however said he will continue talking about things which are not going well in the country as a senior citizen.
“I am not a politician, I am a musician and a Ugandan who is responsible when i talk about politics, it means I am a concerned about my country,” he said.
He said he will not keep quiet and leave ill intended people who want to ruin this country by tainting its image.
“This is where I raised my children, for me I didn’t grow in America so I grew from here, so I can’t keep quite when there is something wrong going on,” he added.
He continued that: “The people of Uganda have helped us by supporting our music, so we need to use our names to help them to make Uganda a better country.”
He urged all the people who are famous to refrain from all kinds of things which can destabilize the country.
He said most of his time will be spent in fighting tuberculosis.
Last week, Bebe Cool, through his Amber Heart Foundation, a non -profit organization received a grant of over shs1.4billion ($400,000) to help in the fight against Tuberculosis.
According to statistics, 80,000 Ugandans die of Tuberculosis annually yet the disease is treatable in all government facilities free of charge.
Bebe cool said his Amber Heart Foundation will use the grant to create awareness and mobilization for testing and treatment of TB in different schools.
