Amooti’s team held a press conference where Eddy Kigere announced that despite the unfortunate circumstances, they felt it was important to continue with the concert. “We cannot cancel the event at such short notice,” Kigere stated. The decision reflects a commitment to celebrating Messe’s contributions to comedy and entertainment in Uganda.
Messe Bontwe was not only a prominent comedian but also a co-founder of the Amarula Family, known for its comedic brilliance and influence on Ugandan culture. Amooti urged fans to come out in large numbers to pay their respects and celebrate the life of a man who brought joy and laughter to many.
As attendees prepare for an evening filled with performances and tributes, it is clear that while Messe may be gone, his spirit will live on through the laughter and memories shared during this special event.
