Ugandan artist Abdul Mulaasi not dead, he is alive and kicking
Social media platforms have this morning been awash with news that Kadongo Kamu singer Abdu Mulaasi popularly known for his song ‘Ngenda Kusiba Farm’ is dead.
Taking to his Facebook platform, Rasta-Smart (Abdu Mulaasi) was quick to point out that the images circulating on social media were taken during a video shoot which involved a death stunt.
He said, in his new video ‘Mumpe nga ndimilamu,’ required him to act as a dead person and was being shot in the presence of very many people. He believes it’s these individuals, present at the video shooting, who took the pictures and circulated them online.
The singer claims to have gone to a show after the video shooting and returned only to receive news and calls inquiring about his death.
He wrote, “Banange omuntu yena ambika ekyo akola kikyamu kubanga nze nkyali mulamu tteke oba mutidde kumpa Ttofali mukyogere wama abe mikwano Ttofali video is loading.”
This can loosely be translated that whoever is circulating news that am dead is wrongfully doing so because I am alive and kicking, if you are afraid of giving me ‘ttofali’ (money), speak out. He further assured his fans that the ‘TTfolai video is coming out soon.
‘Ttofali’ is one of his new songs.
