Renowned events promoter Andrew Alfonso Mukasa, popularly known as Bajjo Events, has stepped forward to address swirling rumors regarding his alleged paternity of singer Sheebah Kalungi’s newborn baby boy. The speculation, which began gaining traction on social media, has prompted Bajjo to set the record straight and protect his reputation.
Bajjo Denies Claims of Fathering Sheebah’s Child
Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) account, Bajjo categorically dismissed the allegations, calling them “false and baseless.” The rumors, reportedly started by his friend and fellow events promoter Hon. Balaam Atenyi, suggested that Bajjo might be the father of Sheebah’s baby. However, Bajjo was quick to debunk these claims, urging his followers to disregard the misinformation.
“Am not the father of Sheebah Kalungi’s son,” he stated firmly. “Disregard false information from @BalaamAteenyiDr that I have a kid with Sheilah Price. I have never met or dated her.”
Clearing the Air with Facts
In a bid to clear his name and reaffirm his stance, Bajjo shared a photo of himself alongside his biological children. The picture served as a testament to his commitment as a responsible father. Bajjo emphasized that he is dedicated to taking care of all his children and has gone the extra mile to confirm their paternity through DNA tests.
“I look after my biological kids very well. These are the children I know and have confirmed through DNA. I take my responsibilities seriously,” he stated.
The Role of Balaam Atenyi in the Controversy
The controversy was fueled by comments from Balaam Atenyi, who claimed Bajjo had a child with TikToker Sheilah Price. Bajjo addressed these assertions directly, dismissing them as unfounded. He reiterated that he has no connection with Sheilah, let alone any romantic relationship or shared parenthood.
Social Media’s Role in Amplifying Rumors
This incident underscores the power and pitfalls of social media, where unverified information can quickly spiral out of control. Bajjo’s response serves as a reminder of the importance of clarifying the truth, especially when reputations and personal relationships are at stake.
Bajjo’s Reputation as a Responsible Father
Beyond addressing the rumors, Bajjo used the opportunity to showcase his dedication as a father. By publicly sharing a photo of his children and confirming their paternity, he not only silenced the rumors but also demonstrated his commitment to his family. This act has garnered praise from his followers, who admire his transparency and sense of responsibility.
A Lesson for Public Figures
As a prominent figure in Uganda’s entertainment industry, Bajjo’s experience highlights the challenges celebrities and public figures face in navigating rumors and speculation. While the incident may have been an attempt at humor or a misunderstanding, its repercussions emphasize the need for accurate reporting and respectful communication in the age of viral content.
The Final Word
Bajjo’s denial of the allegations and his open acknowledgment of his biological children have effectively quashed the rumors surrounding him and Sheebah Kalungi. His proactive approach not only preserved his reputation but also set an example of how public figures can handle similar situations with dignity and clarity.
Fans of Bajjo and Sheebah are now urged to shift their focus to the artists’ professional achievements rather than personal lives, as both continue to contribute significantly to Uganda’s vibrant entertainment scene.
