Musician Eddy Kenzo has finally revealed that he received a grant from the government of Uganda through the Uganda National Musicians Federation.
In an interview with a local television channel, Kenzo explained that the money was channeled through the musicians' Sacco and will be distributed among different musicians.
"We received a grant from the government to support our SACCO. It was half of what we had requested. However, I cannot disclose the exact amount we received as it is confidential information for our organization," he stated during the interview.
Kenzo emphasized that he cannot disclose the exact amount received from the government because it is confidential information for the organization's development.
He mentioned that the money is part of the 13 billion Ugandan shillings they requested from the government as a stimulus package for musicians.
Earlier sources had indicated that the government disbursed over 8 billion Ugandan shillings to musicians.
