Singer Ibrahim Mayanja alias Big Eye has expressed his displeasure and disappointment at the NRM for neglecting him at the time of crisis after spending over 10 years working for the party. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In an interview, Big Eye said he has done a lot for the ruling party for the last 10 years but it seems it doesn’t care about him anymore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I am not happy with NRM, I am so disappointed in the NRM.I have worked for NRM for the last 10 years campaigning for president Museveni,”he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said he received all forms of insults to the extent that bottles were hurled at him while performing on stage but all these are not put into consideration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“What hurts me is that I was unable to carry on with my singing career,my business of singing because of NRM. I was attacked on stage because of the party yet music is my business,”he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mayanja expressed his frustration noting that the party would have given him his money at least for the support he has offered for all those years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Despite all the challenges I faced,I remained supporting the party. I remained calm, humble. I work for my money, I am not asking it for free but I was not paid.I am a star. I am famous not because of NRM. I came out publicly and supported the party irrespective of people’s views,”he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said that he has managed to remain intact in NRM without crossing to other parties for money but it seems the party has failed to understand his situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Have you ever seen me running to other parties looking for money like other artists? The issue is not about money because I didn’t join NRM because of money but I just want my money that I worked for because I am a musician, “he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mayanja said at this trying moment where he is facing my problems he was expecting to get some financial support from the party but nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I need money, I want to solve my problems, the truth is that right need I need Money. Singing is my business. If you can’t sympathized with me,it means you don’t care about me. It is very difficult to work for the party that doesn’t love you,”he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
