New year, same old tune for Eddy Kenzo and the National Unity Platform (NUP). Forget fireworks and resolutions, these two are back to trading barbs, and this time, it's a messy mambo of mismatched statements and accusations of disorganization.
It all started with a rumor swirl - artists got wads of cash, supposedly billions of shillings. Bobi Wine, NUP's president, wasn't impressed. He saw it as a bribe, a way to buy musicians out of supporting him and into the clutches of corruption. He even said that all that money could have built a shiny new hospital like Kiruddu.
But here's the twist: Dr. Hilderman, NUP's shadow minister for entertainment (and yes, that's his real nickname - Dr. Hilderman!), disagreed with his boss. He took the blame, saying he forgot to keep Bobi in the loop.
Eddy Kenzo? He wasn't about to play the silent instrument. He chimed in, saying it's okay for musicians to get that dough, and hypocritical to ignore their struggles. The money, he said, wasn't his personal stash, it belonged to the whole music scene.
But just as Dr. Hilderman might have caught his breath, Kenzo delivered the final sting: "This is all NUP's fault," he declared, pointing the finger at miscommunication and a lack of order.
