Kampala, Uganda – Renowned Ugandan musician Pallaso has met with the Chief Political Commissar of the Uganda Police Force, AIGP Ubaldo Bamunoba, at the Police Headquarters in Naguru to address his ongoing conflict with fellow artist Alien Skin.
The meeting, which included senior police officers and Pallaso’s team, focused on security concerns within the music industry and measures to prevent future violent altercations.
AIGP Bamunoba emphasized the importance of security within Uganda’s entertainment industry and urged Pallaso to channel his energy towards his music and peaceful conflict resolution.
“I urged Pallaso to focus on his talent and promote peaceful conflict resolution within the industry rather than violence,” AIGP Bamunoba stated.
This follows a violent altercation between Pallaso and Alien Skin, which resulted in significant property damage but no serious injuries.
The feud escalated when Pallaso attacked Alien Skin’s base in Makindye on January 2nd, citing frustration with authorities for failing to take action against repeated assaults by Alien Skin’s associates.
Speaking to Newz Updates, Pallaso revealed that his decision was influenced by the struggles of his friend, Eva, who was allegedly assaulted by Alien Skin’s gang and failed to get justice.
“I did not want to be victimized like her,” Pallaso explained, justifying his actions.
Following the altercation, police and government officials intervened to mediate between the two artists, successfully brokering a reconciliation while introducing new restrictions to prevent further violence.
One of the key measures includes banning musicians from moving with more than five people to reduce the likelihood of violent clashes.
With tensions still high in Uganda’s music industry, authorities have urged artists to prioritize dialogue over confrontation to maintain peace and order.
