Singer Edrisa Musuuza alias Kenzo has admitted that he is no longer friends with musician-turned-politician Robert Kyagulanyi, popularly known as Bobi Wine.
Speaking to journalists recently, Kenzo said their relationship ended because they no longer shared the same views on some issues, especially politics.
“My relationship with Bobi Wine ended because he doesn’t need me. If he needed me, he would have done what is needed to be done and he knows that. There are many out there who would have loved to be behind his back if he needed them,” Kenzo said.
He added, “Whoever wants to hate me because I don’t support Bobi Wine should move on because he and I are not on good terms anymore, that’s for sure. I have no problem with him, I wish him well but nobody should intimidate me.”
The two friends-turned-enemies share a long history with Kenzo having previously admitted that he was inspired by Bobi in his musical career.
However, their relationship soured when Kyagulanyi joined politics and challenged President Museveni’s rule.
Their feud gained moment in 2019, when Kenzo declared after meeting with Museveni that he would never campaign for Kyagulanyi ahead of 2021 presidential elections.
“Mr. Kyagulanyi is my friend but I will never campaign for him again. I will support him and vote for him but won’t campaign for him. I will never jump onto any platform to convince people for him unless he has himself convinced people of what he is capable of doing,”Kenzo said in 2019.
Since then, the two have not been getting along and have instead been engaged in a war of words.
