In a recent interview, renowned Ugandan musician Eddy Kenzo threw his weight behind Gravity Omutujju’s call for Bobi Wine to designate a portion of his One Love Beach property in Busabala for the construction of a hospital. This news has sparked widespread conversation and debate within the Ugandan community.
Kenzo, known for his hit songs like “Sitya Loss” and “Tweyagale,” expressed his belief that such a hospital would greatly benefit the surrounding communities. He highlighted the lack of adequate healthcare facilities in the area, stating that many residents struggle to access proper medical care. “We need more hospitals, especially near our beaches,” he said, “This would be a huge step forward for the people of Busabala and the surrounding areas.”
Gravity Omutujju, a fellow musician and close friend of Bobi Wine, initially raised the proposal. He argued that One Love Beach, a popular recreational spot owned by the former presidential candidate, would be an ideal location for a hospital due to its accessibility and spacious grounds. The initiative has gained traction online, with many Ugandans voicing their support on social media.
Bobi Wine, a prominent figure in Ugandan politics and music, has yet to officially respond to the proposal. However, his commitment to social justice and public service suggests that he may be receptive to the idea. Wine has previously spoken about the importance of improving healthcare access in Uganda, and he has a history of supporting community-driven initiatives.
The potential construction of a hospital at One Love Beach has ignited mixed reactions. Some residents have expressed enthusiasm, citing the potential for improved healthcare access and job creation. Others have raised concerns about the impact on the beach’s recreational value and the potential environmental consequences.
The debate surrounding this proposal highlights the complex interplay between social needs, economic development, and environmental considerations in Uganda. As the conversation continues, it will be interesting to see how Bobi Wine responds and whether this initiative translates from words to action, potentially bringing much-needed healthcare to the shores of Lake Victoria.
