Legendary Ugandan musician Dr. Jose Chameleone’s son Abba Marcus Mayanja has shocked the nation after he opened up about his father’s health struggles and made some shocking revelations.
Among these was his father being given two years to live. It should be recalled that Chameleone is currently hospitalized and in a very critical condition according to sources.
Taking to a video on social media, Abba said that he doesn’t want anyone blaming his mother for his dad’s health struggles because she has nothing to do with it. It’s rather a disease known as acute pancreatitis that is hindering his father.
This is a result of repeated alcohol abuse and it’s also responsible for his father’s drastic weight loss. According to Abba, the ‘Vumilia’ singer was given two years to live if he doesn’t slow down his alcohol consumption. However, as an addicted person, he’s failed to clamp it down.
The young man said that he’s watched his father struggle with alcohol for so long. Besides, he doesn’t fault him because he understands the struggles, pressures, and anxieties he’s had to deal with as a public figure.
However, he wants his father to stop being selfish and think about his kids and fans who want him to have a long healthy life. Abba implored his fans as well as those who mean good to the singer to hold him accountable and help him to overcome this addiction.
Abba, 20, expressed his disappointment at his grandparents, Gerald and Prossy Mayanja. He said that he’s never seen such irresponsible and negligent parents like them.
According to him, they lost two family members already to alcohol-induced illnesses yet they have done nothing to help the person responsible for creating the family’s name to sobriety.
