In a statement issued Wednesday afternoon, Benon Kibuuka warned all performing artistes of Uganda to note with concern that developments in the country do not conform to the spirit of the country and for that reason they should be careful.
Kibuuka’s statement partly states that;

While expressing your opinion on the matter, inflammatory statements cannot help achieve our objective of shaping society. It will only cause more problems for our dear Uganda. Therefore lets us ensure that whether through music, poems, plays, dances, skits etc our messages are geared towards building unity in diversity, tranquility and consensus building amongst Ugandans.”
The statement continues that;
“In the same spirit, we also call upon security agencies to accord equal treatment to all-whether they are for or opposed to lifting of age limit for persons vying for presidency…”
