Bobi should have stopped his fans from targeting my mother – Gravity Omutujju

Local rapper Gereson Wabuyi, better known as Gravity Omutujju, has publicly criticized Robert Kyagulanyi, also known as Bobi Wine and the leader of the National Unity Platform (NUP), for not taking action to prevent his fans from targeting Omutujju’s late mother.

Omutujju’s mother passed away last month due to high blood pressure and diabetes. Following her death, many celebrities, including Kyagulanyi, expressed their condolences on social media.

In an interview with Sanyuka Television, Omutujju thanked the music community for their support during this difficult time. However, he suggested that Kyagulanyi’s expressions of sympathy were insufficient, implying that the NUP leader failed to control his fans, who allegedly insulted his mother while she was still alive.

“It’s important to offer condolences when someone suffers a loss, but it’s also crucial to be sensitive when someone is going through a hard time, particularly concerning their parents,” Omutujju said.

The strained relationship between Omutujju and Kyagulanyi’s fans dates back to February, when Omutujju challenged the NUP leader to build a hospital at his One Love Beach in Busabala. This challenge angered Kyagulanyi’s supporters, leading some to direct insults at Omutujju’s mother.

Omutujju told Sanyuka that Kyagulanyi’s fans should have limited their attacks to music and refrained from targeting his mother. He believes Kyagulanyi should have stepped in to curb the behavior of his ‘abusive’ fans.

“It’s fine for fans to critique my music, but if someone’s parent is suffering, it’s your duty to encourage your followers to lessen their attacks, especially if you have the power to influence them,” Omutujju stated. He added, “Don’t wait until someone has passed away to express your condolences. You could have addressed the issues that caused her distress and made it clear that she was not involved, directing the criticism towards me instead of his mother.”
