I cried because Rema, Hamza wanted to send me to the village - Kenzo

"When I was seen crying, what drew tears out of me were family issues. A person I had been with for many years, whom I moved from one level to another, we helped each other, and that person is seen in videos... trying to send me back to the village. That thing pained me a lot because it reminds you of what you have been through, where you have come from and where you have reached,” Kenzo said while commenting on the incident of his former mentee Gravity Omutujju crying during a press conference.

“You ask yourself, why she is dealing with people she is known for two months to send me back to the village, and yet we have a child that will bind us together for life? That thing hurt me and drew tears out of me. But no one should deceive you that someone will say things that will draw tears out of me. You can't say anything that will scare me.”

Kenzo and Namakula dramatically ended their relationship in 2019. She had started dating Dr Hamza Sebunya, who was still a medical student at Makerere University.

The breakup hurt the Sitya Loss singer so much that it even showed through his uncoordinated social media rants that made him sound deranged. It’s in one of these rants that he teared up.

It should be recalled that Rema Namakula, who has an 11-year-old daughter with Kenzo, used to be part of Gagamel, a band founded by Bebe Cool.

She left Gagamel while dating Kenzo and he played a huge role in growing her career.

Kenzo and Cool have one of the long-lasting feuds in the Ugandan music industry and some observers believe it could be because Cool believes its Kenzo who influenced Rema to leave Gagamel.

Rema’s work relationship with Cool ended unceremoniously in 2013.
