The Sitya Danger singer Patrick Mulwana aka Alien Skin has confirmed the rumor of having an ex-Uganda People’s Defence Forces (UPDF) soldier as one of his bodyguards.
Alien Skin confirmed the hullabaloo that has been whirling in the public domain using his official Twitter handle.
“Some people are crediting the Earless man for finding the pictures of my Bouncer Julio, these pictures have been there era they are there. Mbu Kati bwoba wetaga security olina gifuna munsiko, I have been telling nti Nina top security nga muwoza nti ntambula na babi,” the tweet read in part.
After his revelation, fans were left guessing how the 28-year-old musician, who only made a breakthrough less than a year ago, could have acquired the services of an ex-combatant Julio, sparking a flurry of reactions on social media.
“An upcoming artist to hire UPDF for security yet even Chameleon(Joseph Mayanja aka Jose Chameleon) does not have UPDF? one of the tweeps wondered.
The singer found himself at the center of controversy as critics took to the platform to weave a narrative suggesting that Alien Skin was enjoying government support due to his connection. This controversy comes on the heels of Alien Skin making headlines by publicly expressing his desire to collaborate with President Museveni, and also making seemingly disparaging remarks about musician-cum-politician Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine.
These actions had already fueled debates and divided opinions in the political landscape.
In a time where social media can magnify controversies, this incident adds to the ongoing conversation about the intersections between the entertainment industry, politics, and security.
