Kampala, Uganda – Popular Ugandan singer Fyno is currently hospitalized following a violent attack by unidentified goons along Salaama Road. The incident occurred as the “Che Che” hitmaker was returning home from the studio after a long workday. The attackers inflicted severe wounds and bruises, leaving him in critical condition.
Eyewitnesses report that Fyno was ambushed late at night as he made his way home. According to preliminary accounts, the attackers appeared to have targeted him deliberately, beating him severely before fleeing the scene. Residents in the area say they heard loud cries for help, but by the time they reached him, the assailants had vanished.
Bystanders rushed the singer to a nearby medical facility, where he received first aid before being transferred to a specialized hospital for further treatment. Hospital sources confirm that he sustained multiple injuries, including severe bruises and deep cuts.
Fyno’s management has not yet issued an official statement regarding the attack, but close associates have expressed shock and concern over the brutal assault.
The attack comes just days after Fyno publicly opened up about his battles with depression and substance abuse. In a recent interview, he revealed that he had isolated himself for some time to overcome the mental health challenges he was facing.
He also recounted a near-death experience where he was knocked down by a speeding vehicle, an accident that left his left thigh fractured. He described that phase of his life as one of the most difficult periods, struggling to cope with both physical and emotional pain.
Local authorities have launched an investigation into the attack, but no arrests have been made so far. Police have urged anyone with information about the incident to come forward and assist in the ongoing probe.
Security concerns have risen in recent months along Salaama Road, with several reported cases of robbery and violent assaults. Residents are calling for increased police patrols to curb the growing wave of crime in the area.

The Ugandan music industry has also condemned the attack, with some artists calling for better security measures to protect creatives, especially those who work late hours.
