Radio’s mother, Jane Kasubo recently made a public appeal for help to raise up to Shs 350 million to buy the plot next to her son’s grave.
The land which separates the grave and her house is owned by a neighbor, who has imminent plans to develop it.
Kasubo told reporters that if a fence is built around this plot, she will be cut off from her son’s resting place.
The landlord, she says, agreed to sell her the plot, but at an inflated cost of Shs 350million.
Kenzo, Gashumba Promises
Kasubo says she reached out to some of the big players in the music industry, including the Mayanja family and Eddy Kenzo, President of the Uganda National Musicians Federation (UNMF) but was yet to get a positive response.

“He promised to come and take a look but I have not heard from him since.”
The mother also revealed that she reached out Frank Gashumba about a month ago and that he promised to make calls and mobilise some money.
