Posted by: Eninu William in Entertainment August 16, 2022

Next Media’s Sanyuka TV has come out to apologize to its viewers over a recent interview that aired featuring local rapper Gravity Omutujju.

In this episode, the Tusimbudde singer revealed that he’s a woman beater. He expressed his support towards Weasel who has been in the news for battering his baby mama, Sandra Teta.

According to Gravity, he’s much worse than Weasel as he enjoys beating up women and hearing them pleading for mercy.

These comments saw the rapper gain widespread criticism. Although he came out to apologize saying the comments were just sarcasm and he didn’t mean them, the damage was already done.

Calls had even started to rise for the boycott of his upcoming show in October. Sanyuka TV too wasn’t spared in this debacle.

People wondered how a reputable TV station could give airtime to a person to air such unbecoming views.

The station has now decided to own the responsibility and apologize to its viewers. According to Sanyuka TV, the snippet cut out of this interview was blown out of context.

However, it doesn’t mean what was aired was right, this is the reason they decided to apologize to all victims of domestic abuse.

“In hindsight, however, we recognize that we ought to have been more mindful of the significant risks for survivors and others regarding gender-based violence, a vice we largely condemn as a brand. We are truly sorry,” part of the statement from the station read.

Furthermore, the station revealed that together with Gravity, they have taken the necessary measures to correct the damage they did.

Meanwhile, Weasel has continued to warn all those poking their noses in his family affairs to stop. This warning was directed at fellow singer Buchaman’s wife, Mama Ghetto.

Weasel even promised to drag her to court if she doesn’t stop. This is after a few days ago Mama Ghetto confirmed that the Goodlyf singer has been battering his baby mama, Sandra Teta.

Sandra had confided in her and they were set to go to Police. However, Prossy Mayanja, Weasel’s mother talked her out of it.
