Unveiled!! Here’s Why The Kabaka Of Buganda Missed Appearing At The Enkuuka Yo’Mwaaka
The absence of the Kabaka at the just-concluded-Enkuuka Tobongoota 2023 event has puzzled many people.
Last night, the annual end-of-year celebration occurred at Lubiri in Mengo, marking the transition from 2023 to 2024.This event is known for its performances by musicians from all over the country, who entertain revellers and the King of Buganda, Ronald Muwenda Mutebi.
However, this year’s Enkuuka, with its “Tobongoota” theme, did not see the presence of the Kabaka, which has raised questions among netizens.According to reports, it is a Buganda tradition for the Kabaka not to appear at the same place for two consecutive days.
Since the Kabaka had already overseen the Enkuuka venue the day before the event, he could not attend the actual celebration. Instead, he was represented by Naalinya Agnes Nabaloga.
Meanwhile TikTok personality turned singer, Tom Dee, left the event with a battered face, assaulted by troublemakers and his car vandalized. He alleges the attack was due to his association with Alien Skin.Other artists, such as Omukunja Atasera and his partner King Sheebah, faced aggression from irate attendees who hurled bottles during the same show.
Ray G, a prominent singer from Western Uganda, also encountered disruptions during his Enkuuka Tobongoota performance, facing projectiles as soon as he stepped onto the stage. It’s worth noting that Ray G had recently clashed with Azawi, following a stage altercation at the Comedy Store UG show at Mbarara Inn.On a positive note, some artists experienced a successful event.
