Source Management singer Hajarah Namukwaya, popularly known as Spice Diana, has shared her thoughts on why fellow artist Ibrahim Mayanja, alias Big Eye Starboss, experienced a poor turnout at his recent concert.
Spice Diana believes that the low attendance was not due to Big Eye’s political affiliations, as some speculated, but rather a reflection of the current economic hardships Ugandans are facing.
“I think it is not about politics but also the economy itself is down, and people are struggling, plus a lot happening,” Spice Diana explained.
