Kenzo is well-protected, you can only bewitch him - Balaam

"Those who want to kill Kenzo, maybe they'll [bewitch] him. But if they want to use a gun, he has [stronger] guns. Those who want to kill him with guns, go there [prepared for a fight]. He has soldiers that guard him,... if you want to defeat him, [use witchcraft]," Barugahara said in a video seen by this reporter.

Barugahara's comments come after Kenzo cried during a Monday press conference, saying that there were people sending him threats and trying to kill him.

Meanwhile, on Kenzo's issues with Moses Lubulwa of Luba Events, Barugahara said Lubulwa was compensated.

Before the country was subjected to a lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Kenzo and Lubulwa, aka Luba, had entered into a deal to stage the Eddy Kenzo Festival on March 28, 2020, at Kololo Airstrip.

Unfortunately, the event didn't happen because of the lockdown.

Luba had initially paid Kenzo Shs120 million. Other reports put the figure at Shs140m. But after the lockdown when Luba approached Kenzo to organise the festival again, the Sitya Loss hitmaker told him that he needed to pay more Shs520m. Other reports put the figure at Shs550m.

According to Barugahara, during the lockdown, Gen Salim Saleh gave promoters Shs5 billion to cover some of the losses they had made due to the lockdown and Luba took "between Shs600-800 million".

Barugahara said Kenzo had called him prior telling him how Luba was not happy with how things went.

Meanwhile, Luba secured a court order to prevent promoters from booking Kenzo for events until they settle their issues, but it seems it didn't work, as Kenzo held his festival on November 12 yet the injunction was issued on November 9.

Balaam Barugahara said they should settle their issues out of court, with Kenzo paying Luba about Shs20m and giving his lawyer Shs5m.
